THREE SUPER CHAMPS:

Silvio FAUNER, Pietro PILLER COTTRER, Enrico TACH

 if you love corss-country skiing or if you wish to try if for the first time in your life come to Sappada as you will surely meet the three national champions, the pride of italy at international level.
All three of them come from Sappada, they were born and raised here, they have worked hard and made sacrifices turning all this dedication into a success wilch is already a legend in the italian world of sport Silvio Fauner with his strenght and results has already marked the history of sport world-wide and has give us incredibile and ungorgettable results.
Pietro Piller Cottrer is already following in his footsteps with strong determination behind a pair of good lad eyes and he is just out of an incredibile season with a topo performance in the 50 km Holmenkollen race.

Rivers of ink were spent by newspaper reporters filling columns with surprise and wonder. A famous Sappada veteran of corss-country skiing, Eliseo Sartor has brought us to meet these champions together with the last revelation from Sappada: Enrico Tach, the prince of biathlon, excellent corss-country skier and a magican when using a rifle.
All these three champions are in perfect shape and have already started to prepare for the coming season.
Their aim for the future is to participate in the next Olympic Games and if possible to bring back a medal despite the Coubertin’s saying.
It is important to take part in the Games, but all the Italian sport-lovers and all of us in Sappada wish the best for these champions. And to train the champions Sappada offers a wonderful corss-country route developing at the South of the town for about 15 km passing by alle the villages from Lerpa to the Cima. Sappada westerly spurs.
A beatiful system that goes from one side tho the other of the river Piave "You find a little of everything: the sections giving way to competition and selection, afetr all the World Cup took place right here, but also a pelasant loop suitable to all ages and to all levels
of skill "starts Sissio Fauner while Pietro Piller Cottrer nods and says "who can menage on the skis can appreciate a truly interesting environment among the woods" and Fauner "Obviously if you are not sure of your abilities give yourself an instructor at least for the first few times".

Big trails, great fun and the satisfaction to cover a little distance elbow to elbow with Fauner and Piller Cottrer or to admire Enrico Tach shooting at the Biathlon target and getting the bull’eye!
