The longest and most enjoyable Pichlberg-Plankenhorn from the "Sattele" (2,460 m) to the base station (1,570 m) – 3.7km long with an altitude difference of nearly 900m. These fantastic slopes with their breathtaking panoramic views will not fail to impress. The piste is to full European Cup standards with superb crossover points and speeds capable of giving you that rollercoaster feeling. The Plankenhorn piste is wide and bordered by Alpine meadows along its entire route, offering a constant invitation to venture out into the deep snow.

The narrow-gauge railway: The Renon railway was opened on 13th August 1907. For the first time it was possible to cover the just under 1,000 m difference in altitude from Bolzano up to the Renon effortlessly. Quick, reliable and not subject to changes in weather the modern railway carried not only passengers but also goods up to the Renon. Up until the 1960s the rack and pinion railway was the lifeline of the Renon. Today all year round it joins up the localities of Soprabolzano, Costalovara, Stella Renon and Collalbo. In order to cope with the requirements of the “Südtirol Takt” (regular-interval timetable), the rolling stock has been extended. The course is set for the future.

The Renon railway is one of South Tyrol’s treasures. It is an important public means of transport, a sought-after excursion railway and a technical railway rarity passengers have become fond of and that will also bring a lot of pleasure in the future to those who have taken it to their hearts.

Along the way there are 12 stations, which were designed by the pupils of the local primary school. There are lots of small master pieces which were smoothly integrated into the landscape of the Salten high plateau. Each station tells you about a local fairy tale from the area of San Genesio.
