Where can I meet Ötzi the Iceman in Val Senales?
Did you know that one of the oldest natural human mummies in the world was found in Val Senales? When Ötzi was discovered by chance in 1991 by two mountaineers, he was dated to around 3,200 BC. Since then, his body, equipment and clothing have been studied in great detail and have provided us with many valuable insights into his fate and the living conditions at the transition from the Neolithic to the Copper Age. Sounds exciting? You can still meet the Iceman Ötzi in many places in Val Senales today!

Endless, glistening winter landscapes, crystal-clear mountain air and silently gliding steps: cross-country skiing makes sports and nature lovers go into raptures. Despite this, cross-country skiing is still less popular as a hobby than downhill skiing. However, professional competitions have long enjoyed great popularity. Cross-country skiing is not only exciting to watch, but also a versatile and healthy winter sport that is accessible to (almost) everyone. In the Alpin Arena Senales, we are perfectly equipped for your cross-country skiing holiday in South Tyrol: in one of most beautiful places for cross-country skiing in the Alps, you will find two different trails and different cross-country hotels to suit all your tastes.
