How to get here in summer

The journey is part of your holiday!

Pralongià is located on the high plateau between Corvara, La Villa and San Cassiano at the far end of the Badia Valley and can be reached from these three villages, as well as from the Campolongo Pass and the Valparola Pass, either on foot or by bicycle. The mountain lifts can speed up or ease your possible walk here. They are open daily in summer until 5:30 pm. Transporting bikes and strollers is therefore possible. And this is how you get to Alta Badia.

I'm arriving with luggage and using the special service!

Travel for overnight guests in summer

If you are staying for more than two nights, we will pick you up free of charge with our off-road shuttle at the mountain station (before 11:00 am and then again from 3:00 pm). If you wish to use this service, please let us know in advance so you don't have to wait unnecessarily. It is best to park your car directly at the valley station of the Pralongià chairlift in Planac/Corvara. The car park at the valley station is free for guests staying with us. Simply park in the paid area, and we will provide you with a ticket.

Important: please use luggage that can be easily stowed and securely closed. The ride on the gravel road is a bit bumpy. Should you be unable to take the lift, we can pick you up at the Pralongià chairlift valley station. Price: € 50/trip. On the day you leave, we will take you back there in the same way.

If you wish to travel here with your own off-road vehicle, you will need a special permit (only available for stays longer than 5 days). Please only bring your own car in exceptional circumstances.

We are open in winter too!

When it snows, we are right at the heart of the Alta Badia ski area. That alone is a good reason to be open throughout the entire winter season, because we are easily accessible on skis or snowboard, and just as easily on foot. An even better reason, however, is the beauty that surrounds Pralongià, and the fact that you will be spoiled with culinary delights and can stay overnight with us.
