San Martino di Castrozza is an alpine village located in the centre of the Paneveggio Natural Park at a height of 1487 m. above sea level on the slopes of the Pale di San Martino. It is surrounded by easily reachable ski facilities and for this reason it has become a very important tourist destination since the beginning of the 20th century, if not before.
Living in an alpine winter environment, witnessing a snowfall or admiring the snowy landscape on a beautiful sunny day is in itself a unique spectacle to be seen at least once in a lifetime.
But if you really don't want to learn how to ski or do some healthy snowboarding, here are some ideas for a fantastic and fun week!
