Team Building Sterzing: Adventure in the Dolomites

Adrenaline Adventures

Vipiteno (Sterzing) is one of South Tyrol's hidden gems — a town with a Central European atmosphere nestled between mountains, just a stone's throw from the Austrian border. Local companies, with the Leitner Group leading the way, know that team building isn't optional: it's a strategic tool. And the Dolomites zipline is the perfect experience for a corporate outing nobody will forget.

From Sterzing to the Dolomites: 1 Hour Drive

San Vigilio di Marebbe is approximately 1 hour from Sterzing — a fast route along the Brenner motorway A22 to Brixen, then the SS49 towards the Puster Valley. A drive that crosses the heart of South Tyrol, from the Wipp Valley mountains to the Dolomite peaks.

The Leitner Group, headquartered near Sterzing, is just one of the businesses in the area. Manufacturing companies, consulting firms, commercial enterprises, and even companies from neighbouring Austrian Tyrol can take advantage of the strategic location for a team building that brings together different cultures and languages.

Sterzing is just 30 minutes from the Austrian border and 1.5 hours from Innsbruck. Propose a cross-border team building: colleagues from South Tyrol and Austrian Tyrol together on the zipline. An experience that breaks down borders — literally and figuratively.

Cross-Border Team Building: The Sterzing Advantage

The proximity to the Brenner Pass makes Sterzing the ideal base for team building events involving teams distributed between Italy and Austria. Many companies in the area have staff on both sides of the border — and bringing them together for a shared experience creates immeasurable value.

How It Works

  • South Tyrol team: depart from Sterzing at 8:00, arrive in San Vigilio at 9:00
  • Austrian Tyrol team: depart from Innsbruck at 7:30, arrive in San Vigilio at 9:00 (via Brenner + A22 + SS49)
  • Meeting point: everyone together on the zipline platform at 9:30

Language is never an issue: our staff speaks German, Italian, and English. Instructions are given in all required languages.

The Zipline Experience for Teams

The Dolomites zipline is far more than a recreational activity. Seven lines crossing the valley at over 100 metres above ground, reaching speeds of up to 80 km/h — an experience that levels hierarchies and creates authentic bonds.

For cross-border teams, the value is even greater: sharing a high-intensity emotional experience transcends any language or cultural barrier. On the platform at 100 metres, there are no nationalities — only colleagues encouraging each other.

What the Package Includes

  • Complete zipline: 7 lines, 9 platforms, approximately 1.5 hours
  • Multilingual briefing (German, Italian, English)
  • 4K video for every participant
  • Reserved area for the group
  • Full equipment provided
