Nostalgia race at Watles

Music/dance , Sport ,

Saturday 14 Mar 2026

The Watles ski area is once again taking a trip back in time this year, with a nostalgic atmosphere throughout the entire ski area.

In March, when winter is loudly driven out every year in the tradition-conscious Upper Vinschgau Valley and the entire region is already being spoiled by the sun again, friends of traditional skiing meet at the Watles adventure mountain for a very special event. On this day, fans of authentic skiing fun take to the slopes in suits and ski outfits from the era of Luis Trenker, such as Norwegian dresses or Sarner jackets and hats, with the women wearing skirts and classic wooden walking sticks. They ski down the slopes on original wooden skis. And at the exuberant celebration afterwards, with regional specialities (food like in the old days), there is a waltz in the ski hut instead of après-ski.


Entry fee: €10.00
