Set in the heart of the Val Gardena, the chocolate-box village of Santa Cristina is renowned for its impressive landscape of towering peaks and sunny, rolling pastures. Set foot into the village itself though, and you will find that there is more to this place than just mountain vistas. This is a land of proud traditions and hearty hospitality. Summer or winter, Santa Cristina is the right place to indulge your appetite for adventure and mountain exploration on its countless hiking trails and heart-stealing pistes. There is plenty to experience for young and old, with the added benefit of the health effects of moderate altitude.
