A healthy diet

A short introduction to the theme of food for children at the Berghotel: we do not have separate menus for children. Do you want to know why? That's easy! We cook in such a way that children can develop the sense of taste and tell good food from bad: this means we do not use flavour enhancers or chemical additives, which unfortunately are to be found in the diet of many children nowadays. And there is no place for fast food - to which children quickly become accustomed and is very difficult to eliminate - rich in fats, sugars, additives but very little fibre; you won't find any at the Berghotel, your family hotel in the Dolomites. It has been demonstrated that children who live on "junk food" medium and long-term negative consequences for their health. In short, a healthy and balanced diet is fundamental for our culture!

A healthy diet

A bit of movement in nature

Children love to discover nature like little explorers: in summer the Dolomites offer lots of space to breathe the fresh mountain air and fully enjoy nature, which is the most interesting playground for children. For example, Sesto has a very special walk to enchant its youngest tourists, the so-called “Schnullermeile”. Even with pushchairs, you can easily reach the attractive neighbouring resorts in the Three Peaks Dolomites, Dolomites of Sexten during your family holiday in South Tyrol.

But winter at Sesto is also suitable period for families: the Berghotel, your family hotel in the Dolomites, is right beside the Brugger ski lift, so you can even watch your little skiers from the balcony. For the more expert skiers we recommend the ski areas of Monte Elmo and Croda Rossa, which have been linked recently.
