Val Gardena

Excursion Naturonda along the stone city

Nem

The città dei sassi is located on Passo Sella under the famous Sassolungo, it is a "city" with a lot of stones of different sizes which you can climb or walk around. Along the path you have an amazing view of the city and its surroundings.

From Selva to the Sella pass. You can reach it either by bus 471 from Selva in direction to Passo Sella or by car until the parking place.

Start from the Passo Sella bus stop and follow the signposts to Naturonda. You will come across Città dei sassi, resting at the bottom of the northern, vertical walls of the Sassolungo; continue on a jaw-dropping journey through a marvellous natural landscape. Information boards, placed along the walk, offer interesting titbits on local flora and fauna such as descriptions, food foraging and the habitat of wild foxes, rabbits and groundhogs living in Val Gardena. The boards also list interesting trivia on flora, geology and regional herbs. Return back on path number 526.
