Church of St. John

Such a secret scenery in the valley. Lovely animals are waiting for you from the entrance gate. A ticket vending machine is there cost €4/PP, just place the ticket on the scanning machine and pass the gate There are few charged car park places on the site

It’s a beautiful church set in such an incredibly breathtaking location however, it’s really not worth the €4 fee per person to get up close to it. If it’s something you really want to see (like we did) then I’d recommend it, but you can’t go inside the church… We hadn’t realised this at the time and paid with the intention of thinking we could go inside. Altogether there are vast meadows/fields around the church, the path is quite restricted and you literally just go to take a photo and leave - there’s not really a space or opportunity to sit down and enjoy the view.

Our wait time should have been no time. But the machine buttons gave us a hard time. We couldn’t do more than 1 ticket at a time. Then it didn’t scan. 4€ per ticket. We parked at the parking lot DOWN the hill. That was a nightmare. 4€ for that. Too much if you are visiting the church. Views from the church absolutely stunning.

Well, we staying at Dolomite Home which is a couple minutes drive from here. We came during winter time in late afternoon around 3:20 pm so no one there. I bought a ticket from machine and went all by myself. It was beautiful 😻

South Tyrol and its Alpine trails are a different world. Different rock formations, and therefore different scenery, completely different from the vast massifs of the Alps. The Dolomites dominate with a distinct appearance and are a must-see, and traveling the narrow roads between villages, you can find places like this one. A church dating from 1744, set against the backdrop of the Val di Funes valley, creates a stunning backdrop, and nearby trails allow you to enjoy these magnificent views.

As others have mentioned, the entrance fee is 4 euros. The landscape is beautiful, but it’s also visible from other places. Someone bought the church and makes money from tourists who want to take nice pictures. There’s nothing else to do here – it’s just a small place with rope fences, a closed church, and that’s it.

Such a serene little spot. The tiny church is nestled in the meadow valley at the base of the Dolomites. (FYI there is a bathroom (€0.50) across the street from the P2 parking in a white building.) Also, everyone in line in front of me at the ticket kiosk was having trouble getting tickets. It didn't take cash or coins today and you have to hold your card on the chip reader for a long time before it processes. Put the chip on there and hold it still until the reader lights up green.

Nice to see, but not worth 4 euros. This image shows the view from outside the paid area. Once you pay to enter, you can get closer but still can’t go inside. It actually looks better from this distance.
