Nordic HERO

Are you a cross-country skiing star?

We have come up with a rewarding challenge for particularly ambitious cross-country skiers: If you complete predefined cross-country ski trails in the Dolomiti NordicSki region, you will receive an award in recognition of your sporting achievement. You will have skied the most beautiful trails in the region and bring home a lasting memory of your winter holiday. For those who would like to complete the specified routes at a certain speed, we recommend completing the Nordic HERO Champ. In addition to the award, participants can win an overnight stay in a hotel in the region.
