Winter days in Val Gardena do not end when the sun goes down but extend beyond sunset with the Special Nights.
Evening and night- time activities
The famous Val Gardena Dolomite valley in South Tyrol is offering the Special Nights, a calendar of evening and night-time activities, sporting and otherwise, that are open to everyone. Among the most dynamic of them every Tuesday it is possible to take part in night sledding at Rasciesa, enhanced by a typical dinner in a mountain hut, while on Wednesdays there is an evening snowshoe hike, also with dinner in a mountain hut.

Dining in mountain landscapes
In S. Cristina, on 3 February and 3 March, you can go cross-country skiing in the moonlight, with free admission and free equipment hire. And in S. Cristina, every Thursday you can spend an evening on an e-bike in the snow, discovering Monte Pana and the Alpe di Siusi accompanied by a guide and ending the evening with a traditional dinner in a mountain hut. With Magic Sunset Skiing visitors can admire the sunset over the Dolomites with an aperitif and end the evening with a picturesque 10 kilometre torchlight descent to Ortisei. For an alternative night-time walk combining art and nature, there are torchlight walks on Monte Pana, which combine culture, landscape and romance.

Transfers by snowcat or snowmobile
Among the initiatives open to everyone the Comici Mountain Hut also organizes special themed dinners with transfer by snowcat or snowmobile, while there are also events dedicated to observing planets and galaxies, allowing holidaymakers to experience the mountains under the starry sky. The Val Gardena evening calendar is part of the winter programme, complementing the varied daytime activities with a series of structured and easily accessible events. Special Nights accompany guests to the valley on a journey of discovery of environments, landscapes and atmospheres that stand out at night.
