On Wednesday evening from beginning of January to March, the Carnia Run has floodlit skiing. (extra cost, please see tourist office website for further details)
Beginners are catered for in the village of Sonnenalpe, and if staying in Tropolach you will begin your lessons at the top of the Millenium Express gondola. Intermediates are in their element with a wide range of pistes offering all kinds of challenges. Advanced skiers will find a number of black runs (off piste), or you can try touring or telemark.
