“Val Gardena is a skier’s paradise! The slopes are perfectly groomed, offering options for all skill levels, from beginners to experts. The scenery is breathtaking, with the majestic Dolomites all around, making every run unforgettable. The lift system is efficient, minimizing waiting times, and the après-ski vibe is fantastic.

Val Gardena for ski is in my top3 in Europe (been to 5 resorts in Dolomites, 3 in Val di Sole, 2 in Austrian Tirol, 3 in Aosta…) - why? You have all the options: long trails like Gardenissima (6km), La Longia (8km acc to my watch), Cir etc. You have shorter runs in Sassolungo part of the resort. You have difficult runs as well as long gentle easy ones. You have everything + one of the most beautiful scenery you can imagine, Sella massif, Sassolungo massif, Seceda, incredible Seceda. Visited few times but always before season in December and no crowds. The only negative- train connecting Seceda part to Sassolungo part is not always reliable. This place every ski person needs to visit at least once ina lifetime

Col Raiser to Seceda - Length: 6 km (one way) - Duration: 2-3 hours - Starting Point: Col Raiser cable car station A scenic and relatively easy trail that offers stunning views of the Odle/Geisler group and the vast meadows of Seceda.
