6 destinations to celebrate Christmas in the mountains

Natale in montagna

Christmas in the mountains: between the majestic peaks of the Dolomites and the snow-covered peaks of the Swiss Alps. For stays in modern design hotels, but also in hotels that seem to come out of a fairy tale.
To have fun on the ski slopes, but also to regenerate in the magnificent spas

 

The falling snow. The festive and typical markets. And, everywhere, an atmosphere capable of evoking the true and authentic magic of the holidays. Christmas in the mountains is a choice that brings together adults and children.

Here are 6 destinations where you can spend unforgettable days.

 

1 Val Pusteria

The Falkensteiner Family Resort Lido suggests an family-friendly idea. In fact, young and old can discover the happiness of Christmas in the mountains in the heart of the city of Brunico by visiting its markets. Splendid Christmas lights illuminate the center and you can admire nativity scenes or animals carved in wood.

In this magical setting, in addition to warming up with a good chocolate or a steaming cup of tea, you can go looking for inspiration for Christmas gifts. There is also the possibility, once back at the hotel, to enjoy a wide range of experiences and activities including entertainment and relaxation in the SPA.

Castel Maurn is a historic residence located in Palù, a hamlet of San Lorenzo di Sebato (BZ), The 8 apart-suites are ideal for families. Each suite also has a kitchen with access to fine wines and you can also participate all together in a typical South Tyrolean cooking class or have a chef available in the house.

It’s a personalized Christmas holiday, which is enriched by the magic of the Dolomite landscape and fun on the ski slopes with the possibility of requesting an exclusive ski instructor and a concierge service to book huts and shelters.

Sleigh rides or panoramic hikes and snowshoe hikes. Castel Maurn organizes everything according to the wishes of the guests. And to end the day in relaxation, there is nothing better than a visit to the Spa area within the historic walls.

2 Kronplatz
For a romantic getaway for couples, the 5-star Falkensteiner Hotel Kronplatz is the perfect address. In the hotel the magic is breathed from the arrival of the guests who are offered delicious Christmas biscuits.
