Obereggen is my favorite ski resort in the Dolomites!!! I snowboarded with my friends for 5 days…read morestraight and had a blast!!! The slopes have lots of variety and there are plenty of piste rosse (red slopes = medium hard. Equivalent to blue squares in America) for intermediate snowboarders like myself. They have 18 lifts, and the altitude goes as high as 2,500 meters. The snow condition is amazing, all fresh natural snow perfectly groomed! The best of all is the view..... mamma mia, the panoramic view of the Dolomites is priceless!!! The ski pass for the whole day (giornaliero) is €40 and half day afternoon pass (pomeridiano) is €27, which is good from12pm till 5pm. The first day I bought pomeridiano because we got there around 11am, but on the following day I decided to buy 4 day pass ( €148) not only to save money but also to skip the hassle of waiting in line to buy the pass every morning. The snowboard rental for 5 days was €81 including boots (Again, you save money and time by doing a long-term equipment rental instead of renting it daily) . I recommend to rent a locker together with the snowboard rental because you get a big discount ( €18for 5 days ) when combined with the equipment rental. Having a locker by the ski resort made our lives so much easier!! The locker was big enough to put 1 set of ski and 1 snowboard and 2 sets of boots, but at one point we even managed to squeeze in 2 sets of ski, & 1 set of snowboard, and 3 sets of boots (!!) which we called it " lo stile Italiano", haha. There is a special piste only for "Slittini" (sledges) and I highly recommend trying it if you've never done it! It's only €4 to rent a sledge and it's super fun!!! There are plenty of "refugio" (mountain hut) to take a break and sip some delicious bombardino (warm egg nog + brandy served with whipped cream) or calimero (bombardino with a shot of espresso) to warm up your body. At the refugio you can enjoy local cuisines like goulash, strudel, polenta with sausage, etc.... This part of Italy is heavily populated with German-speaking italians so the food also reflect the German heritage. I don't think there is twilight skiing but by 4pm I was already tired anyways. I hope to go back again one day!!!

Great ski resort! Whether you are skiing, snowboarding, sliding or simply are an Apreski fan. The…read moreresort is accessible from 3 villages which are connected with cable cars: Obereggen (closest to Bolzano), Pampeago and Predazzo. The slopes in Obereggen tend to be less crowded and more suitable for beginners, whereas Pampeago is the place to be in case there has been little snow fall. Prices for an adult day pass range from 39 to 44 Euros, depending on the season. The best about this ski resort is its proximity to Bolzano. It only takes 40min by public bus (departing from the Bolzano bus terminal, 400m from the train station) to reach Obereggen.

In the woods, up a windy road, this 'human powered' amusement park is worth the drive. It's fun…read morefor children and adults alike. Just bring along your sense of adventure and fun! The park opens at 10:30, and we arrived shortly after that, but the parking lot was almost already full, so come early. Parking is under the trees, nice on a hot summers day, and there are plenty of waste bins throughout the parking area for soda cans and the like. We brought along some bottled water and fruit for a quick snack between rides. We visited in August when the restaurant was not open. A few people brought their own food and when we first arrived, there was a stack of cardboard on the bar that people were writing their names on and the number of people in their party - then they set these on a table to 'reserve' it for their lunch. The bar was open a little before lunch time and the line for drinks and fries, the only 'food' item we saw, was very, very long. I can not say what food was actually available, but check their website for restaurant times. The park is in several sections, all under the trees. Directly behind the restaurant begins with trampoline, swings and slides of many sizes from small child to several stories up. All the rides take some man power. Many are easy, a few require a LOT of strength. To the side of the restaurant are a few more rides and play areas. Although there were many people in the park it never felt crowded and we hardly had to wait for any ride. The largest slide requires a bit of rug beneath you to assist in the decent. I found the small rug samples provided would slip out from under and I got a bit of a friction burn on my arm trying to control the decent without the carpet. You get some speed on that slide. The one on the far left seems to be the fastest ride down! If you happen to have a small, narrow carpet you can bring for this ride I recommend you do so. Most of us 'lost' our carpet on the way down! Some of the more adventurous rides required the assistance of a staff member and were not open during our visit. We spent about 2 hours in the park. It was a lot of fun and we adults felt like kids again. I was a bit sore the next day from using muscles I hadn't in a while, but it was all good fun and totally worth the trip!

Really cool indoor play park for kids of all ages. They have a small area for very small kids (2…read moreand under). Three large trampolines into a foam pit for kids of all ages (including adults). The facilities are well manned so there are only a safe number of people on each item. Enjoy park also includes a watered down high-ropes/obstacle course, a climbing wall and a small go-cart track. It also appears as though they are building laser tag (as of mid 2016). I would think the oldest who would enjoy this place is 9. But the trampolines are fun for anyone willing to get on :) Entry is about 5Euro. They also have a 'bar' area that serves some snack food and light refreshments (including beer and wine). There are tables for the parents to sit, relax and have a drink while the kids play. They DO offer birthday parties as well.
