Val Gardena

UNESCO hike at the foot of the Odle

Medium

This exciting hike in the heart of the Puez-Odle Nature Park leads to the recently built Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage -Viewpoint Mastlé-S. Cristina/Val Gardena. The path winds its way below the imposing vertical Fermeda towers, to the Pieralongia and then to the Seceda mountain located at a higher altitude.

The starting point is the valley station of the cable car Col Raiser, which is located in the municipality of Selva Gardena, but is not far from the centre of S. Cristina. It can be reached by internal shuttle buses or by car (chargeable parking on site).

The Col Raiser gondola is where it all starts: an exciting hike in the heart of the Puez-Odle Nature Park. Leave the mountain station behind you and follow a forest path to the recently built Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage Terrace, Mastlé-S. Cristina/Val Gardena. The path winds its way below the imposing vertical Fermeda towers, leading hikers first to the typical Pieralongia mountain pasture and then to the Seceda mountain pasture located at a higher altitude. From here, continue on the Mastlé mountain pasture back to the starting point.
