Cross Country Skiing

The Alpe di Siusi in the Dolomites is known for its breathtaking beauty and variety of leisure activities. One of the most popular activities on the Alpe di Siusi is cross-country skiing.

The physical benefits of cross-country skiing:
-Full body workout: cross-country skiing is an excellent full body workout. It works the leg muscles for gliding and the upper body for pushing. This leads to increased muscle strength and improves endurance.
-Cardiovascular health: This sport is ideal for improving cardiovascular health. The constant movement promotes blood circulation and reduces the risk of heart disease.
-Calorie burning: Cross-country skiing is a calorie-burning sport. In one hour you can burn up to 500-800 calories, depending on the intensity and speed.
-Easy on the joints: In contrast to alpine skiing, cross-country skiing is easier on the joints, as the load is distributed more evenly across the body. This also makes it suitable for people with joint problems.

The mental benefits of cross-country skiing:
-Stress reduction: the peaceful surroundings of the Alpe di Siusi and the exercise itself can help to reduce stress and increase well-being.
-Mental relaxation: Cross-country skiing requires concentration and mental stamina, which can lead to improved mental relaxation and increased self-confidence.
