13 APRIL 2008
„LÅCKNFESCHT“ - SNOW FESTIVAL
The best at the end! On 13th April 2008, just before the last lifts close, there is an exciting and unique event you shouldn’t miss, called the „Låcknfescht“. It all started 20 years ago (in 1988) when some people from the Pusterer valley tried to cross a small pond of melt water in the “Seewiese” (lake meadow) on the Kronplatz mountain every year in spring. The big puddle has turned into a grand one – thanks to the water supply. Cars without tyres, marriage-beds, bath tubs, rockets, desks, deck chairs with parasols, compositions of tyres, people in uniforms or half-naked ones and lots of other “saucers” on which you can slide down the hill can be found at the festival. Besides there is great and groovy music, food and drink for everyone!
The highlight of the day is the BIG AIR COOL WATER JUMP CONTEST. Skiers and snowboarders risk acrobatic jumps into the freezing cold water of the „Låcke“.

Kronplatz in the Giro fever
26.5.2008

On 26th May 2008 you can see the pros firsthand because the Giro d’Italia will take place again in the Pustertal Valley in 2008. The “Giro” will start in Sicily on 10th May and the 16th stage goal will be the 2,275-metre-high Kronplatz. After two stages in the high mountains from Verona up to the Passo Manghen and the final ascent to the Alpe di Pampeago the race leads from Arabba to the Passo Pordoi and to the Passo di San Pellegrino. Then they cycle on to Passo Giau and Passo Falzarego, and the arrival at the Passo Fedaia concludes the 15th stage. The 13.8 kilometres should then be covered as fast as possible. From St. Vigil in Enneberg the race continues to the Furkel mountain pass on 1,789 metres and on to the Kronplatz – with different sections includingmore than 20 per cent ascending slope. A fantastic race which assures a unique panoramic view! By the way, the cycle route on the Kronplatz Mountain with its stunning panorama is open all summer long for you!
