Forestis overlooks the Dolomites and is nearby the tiny village of Palmschoss. The property offers lots of hiking in spring and summer, and there's also ski-in and ski-out in winter. From the States, it's a journey to get there, but worth it. From Milan, it takes two trains and three hours to Brixen. Getting there from Innsbruck, Austria, is easier.
