After a second visit, I'm updating the review to 4/5. When open, the ski renting service and the instructors are good and very helpful. My friend rented good equipment for a fair price. (Original review: I've planned to rent ski equipment for a friend in full winter season on a Sunday morning. All sources of information told me that the place would be open -- their website, Dolomiti Nordicski website, their FB profile. When arrived at destination, we were greeted by a piece of paper saying "Sunday rest". In full winter season, this being one of two places in Alta Badia for renting skis. Called them, with no answer.)

Most memorable infrastructure and surronding in Italy for Nordic skiing!

Beautiful location and great staff to learn the mystic art of cross country skiing.

4 km track is open. Enjoy it.

(Translated by Google) Cross-country skiing is one of those sports where you have the idea of ​​being able to approach it almost on your own or with the advice of those who already ski... that's how it was for me but then by attending cross-country school I realized the The importance of correct setup and technique that only a master can give you. The teachers at the school are good, friendly and patient and thanks to the lessons I took I was able to overcome the setbacks I had, acquire new techniques and spend pleasant days. At the school it is also possible to rent all the equipment at a modest price. In addition to the cross-country lessons, the school also organizes beautiful snowshoe excursions with interesting explanations from the guide who is a great connoisseur of nature and places and at the end also sends the photographic report of the excursion via email. The slopes are beautiful and even when there is no snow there is still 4 km of snow. At the cross-country center there is also a bar restaurant where the cuisine is excellent and the staff very kind. (Original) Lo sci di fondo è uno di quei sport per cui si ha l'idea di potersi avvicinare quasi da soli o con i consigli di chi già scia...così è stato per me ma poi frequentando la scuola di fondo mi sono resa conto dell'importanza della corretta impostazione e della tecnica che solo un maestro ti può dare. I maestri della scuola sono bravi, simpatici e pazienti e grazie alle lezioni prese ho potuto superare i difetti di impostazione che avevo, acquisire nuove tecniche e passare piacevoli giornate. Alla scuola è inoltre possibile noleggiare ad un prezzo modico tutta l'attrezzatura. Oltre alle lezioni di fondo la scuola organizza belle escursioni anche con le ciaspole con interessanti spiegazioni da parte della guida che è un grande conoscitore della natura e dei luoghi e alla fine invia anche il report fotografico dell'escursione via mail. Le piste sono belle e anche quando non c'è neve sono comunque innevati 4 km. Al centro fondo è poi presente un bar ristorante in cui la cucina è ottima e il personale gentilissimo.

(Translated by Google) During my trip to the Dolomites, I stayed in a vacation rental apartment on the upper floor of this building. Up a nice staircase from the common entrance between the restaurant and clothing store, we found a warm room decorated with traditional furniture and functional equipment. The owner's email response is also quick. Located in the center of a small town, the pedestrian space was relaxing, and there was a restaurant on the first floor and a supermarket in the basement, making it convenient for self-catering. The staff at the store are also courteous. The pizza was delicious and if you left half of it, they gave you a takeaway box. The city is clean and hygienic, and I enjoyed walking through the mountains and via ferrata during my stay. I didn't see any Japanese people though. (Original) ドロミテ旅行中の1Wこちらの建物の上階にありバケーションレンタルアパートに滞在。 飲食と衣料品店の間の共用玄関から素敵な階段を上り、伝統的な家具を飾り機能的な設備の温かい部屋でした。オーナーのメール対応も迅速。 こぢんまりした街での中心部、歩行者空間は寛げるし1階にレストラン地階にスーパーがあり自炊にも便利でした。お店の人の対応も丁寧。 ピザも美味で、半分残すと持ち帰り箱をくれました。 街が綺麗で衛生的、山歩きとvia ferrataのために滞在中の街散歩も楽しかったです。 日本人は見かけなかったけど。

We were Service was so friendly and the advice was simply great! Big compliments to the kitchen! Simply great!

(Translated by Google) Characteristic place in the central street of San Cassiano. Typical hospitality and familiarity that distinguish the refreshments of Val Badia. The food is excellent and then there is him: his majesty the strudel. It is served here The best strudel in the whole valley, in my humble opinion.

(Translated by Google) We took 2 chocolates with cream (€11). When we asked for the allergens in tiramisu we were told that there were too many people and they couldn't tell us. Rude waiter also. ...Life is beautiful... (Original) Abbiamo preso 2 cioccolate con panna (11€). Chiesti gli allergeni del tiramisù è stato risposto che c'era troppa gente e non potevano dirceli. Cameriere maleducato inoltre. ...La vita è bella...

Staying at the hotel nearby, this church does not let you have a good sleep. Ringing every 15mins!!! And 20times more sometimes

(Translated by Google) The parish church of San Cassiano in its current structure dates back to 1782 when it was rebuilt on the basis of a pre-existing 15th century building. The style is characteristic of the churches of these mountains and makes this place particularly intimate and welcoming. Not to be missed. (Original) La chiesa parrocchiale di San Cassiano nella sua struttura attuale risale al 1782 quando è stata ricostruita sulla base di un edificio preesistente del XV secolo. Lo stile è caratteristico delle chiese di queste montagne e rende questo luogo particolarmente intimo ed accogliente. Da non perdere.

Superb quality of ferrata equipment and perfect flexible approach to the customer.

Giorgio and his colleagues gave us top service and were very helpful renting us equipment to do via ferrata hikes. Beautiful store with a nice selection of all sorts of outdoor clothing and gear.

Best retail clothing experience in Alta Badia. Rents top quality Santa Cruz mountain bikes, including the full suspension e-bike Heckler

Great service and Oliver was very helpful with advise about cycling the Sella Ronda.

Great flexibility and thanks for the delivery option on the via ferrata gear. Oliver was super helpful

Rented a VF kit. Price was fair considering the perfect condition of equipment. The clerk also helped us out researching a good route for the conditions by letting us have a peek at the guidebook.

Our rented Santa Cruz Hightowers were delivered to our hotel before they were promised, and were picked up early too! The bikes inluded multi tools, a spare tube and a CO2 inflator to use on the trail in case of a breakdown. Bikes arrived in great shape with fresh grips and tires. The bikes performed well on the Sellaronda and made for a great day. All arrangements were made on their excellent website, and a special request for SPD pedals on one bike was granted. Would rent from Lagazoi again! To improve, they should ask for rider's saddle height measurement and weight for proper suspension setup. The saddle height was an easy fix with the included multi tool, and luckily the suspension settings were close enough.
