Museum of the Nativity

The Crib Collection in the Bishop’s Palace in Brixen is one of the most significant collections in the world and is a must-see attraction for tourists visiting South Tyrol in winter. The famous Probst’s crib is set up on the ground floor and features more than 5,000 figurines. Visitors will also find other nativity scenes from the past three centuries to complement the two main ones.

Guided tours

If you’re interested in culture and history, we recommend going on a guided tour of Brixen. Visitors can choose between an information-packed tour of this diocese, a tour of the town at night with a night watchman or an immersive theatrical tour during which you will be taken back to medieval Brixen.

Winter hikes and snowshoeing

Visitors can experience the quiet side of the region, away from the hive of activity on the slopes, on a hike through the snowy winter countryside. There are numerous hiking routes on the outskirts of the ski resort and in Plose ski resort itself. Rustic cabins along the way are a great place to stop off and warm up. If you don’t want to hike alone, you can join a guided (snowshoe) hike.

Plose Nights

In winter, you can head up the Plose mountain every Friday evening for a leisurely hike, a ski tour or a cosy evening spent with friends in a cabin. From January to March, you can take the cable car to the top of the mountain, chill out in the cabins and then enjoy the main event: the ride back down the mountain in a sled on the well-lit RudiRun natural toboggan run.

Paragliding and tandem flights

The Plose is one of the best paragliding territories in South Tyrol, with picturesque high plateaus, steep hills and fantastic views as far as the eye can see across the Eastern Alps. You can enjoy your tandem flight over the Plose with a trained and experienced pilot by your side. This overwhelming experience is sure to be unforgettable.
