Skiing in the heart of the Dolomites

The Mountain Residence Merk, located in the heart of the Dolomites, enjoys an idyllic location just minutes away from the most beautiful ski slopes in the Val Gardena / Alpe di Siusi ski area, which is the main part of the renowned Dolomiti Superski ski resort, the world's largest ski carousel. Oswald Runggaldier, ski instructor and coach, will provide you with valuable advice regarding ski school or equipment rental, and upon request, he can accompany you on some spectacular off-piste descents in the Sella Group.

To reach the ski slopes, you can take advantage of the ski bus (stop in front of the property) or, upon request, our private shuttle, which will take you back to the residence after a day of skiing.
