Ski holidays Anras - Sunny idyll in Alta Pusteria!

Anras

The idyllic Anras is located on the East Tyrolean side of the Alta Pusteria and is framed by the Lienz Dolomites and the Defreggen Mountains. Due to its altitude and location on a sunny upper terrace, the resort is usually bathed in light. This not only contributes to visitors' relaxation, but also adds the finishing touches to the surrounding mountain scenery. Here, a romantic mountain village atmosphere is all around. The municipality of Anras, with around 1,200 residents, is spread spaciously between a main village and multiple estates and hamlets.

Like many villages in the Alps, Anras also has an eventful history, which is not only reflected in the old buildings in the resort's centre. Schloss Anras, which served as a courthouse in the 19th century, is especially well worth seeing. Nowadays, exclusive concerts and exhibitions take place there. For further cultural sights, it's worth making a day trip to the district capital of Lienz, which is only around 22 km away from Anras. The town is the cultural centre of East Tyrol and, with its colourful inner city and Schloss Bruck, offers varied leisure activities.

Alta Pusteria

On the border with South Tyrol, far away from the hustle and bustle, lies the sunny Alta Pusteria valley. Surrounded by picturesque mountains, the ski resort offers a fantastic panoramic view of the Dolomites. Perfectly groomed slopes and first-class cross-country trails are waiting to be explored. The Alta Pusteria Ski Centre also offers an attractive snow park at an altitude of 2,200 metres, where all skiers and snowboarders can have a great time. Relaxation is also a top priority in Hochpustertal: a tranquil winter hike, a romantic horse-drawn sleigh ride or a cosy stop at one of the Tyrolean inns will make the hustle and bustle of everyday life seem a distant memory.
