[2025 Ortisei Attraction] Travel Guide for Seceda (Updated Jul)

Famous for its sharp, knife-edge peak, Colline degli Italiani is one of the most iconic peaks in the Dolomites. Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up, its grandeur is breathtaking. This is a paradise for mountaineering enthusiasts and a great location for photography enthusiasts. When the morning light appears or the sun sets, the Blade Mountain is dyed with golden edges, as if it is the most proud masterpiece of nature. 🚗 Travel Guide ▪️From Milan Central Station, take a train to Bolzano, the whole journey takes about 4 hours. The scenery outside the window gradually became magnificent, and in a blink of an eye, the hustle and bustle of the city was replaced by the tranquility of the mountains. After arriving in Bolzano, you can choose to take a bus to the small town of Ortisei, which takes about 1 hour. This town is an ideal starting point for exploring the Dolomites. - 🖼️Attractions not to be missed 📍 Lago di Carezza ▪️This lake is famous for its crystal clear waters, and a stroll around the lake is a real treat. Under the sunlight, the lake surface is shining with colorful light, like a rainbow, which is so dazzling that one can't help but want to record this moment with a camera. 📍 Seceda ▪️Seceda is one of the most stunning sights in the Dolomites. Half of the mountain is covered with grassland, and the other half is a steep cliff. Standing on the top of the mountain, you will feel an incomparable shock. There is also an old-fashioned cable car here. Taking the cable car up the mountain is like returning to your childhood. While enjoying nature, you can also feel the weight of history. The round trip cable car ticket is 39.5💶, absolutely worth it! 📍 Seiser Alm ▪️Take the cable car from Knife Edge Mountain to Seiser Alm, a great place to relax. The vast meadows, leisurely cattle and distant mountains complement each other, as if you are in a painting. 📍 Funes Valley ▪️Funes Valley is known as one of the representative attractions of Dolomites. Walking into it is like walking into a fairy tale world. Every scenery here is amazing, especially at sunset, when the golden sunlight shines on every blade of grass and tree in the valley, which is breathtakingly beautiful. Don’t forget to visit St. Johan, the loneliest internet-famous church in the world, and take some beautiful photos! - ⚠️ Tips ▪️ The attractions in the Dolomites are relatively scattered, and transportation mainly relies on public transportation. Therefore, if you don’t drive yourself, be sure to check the bus schedule before traveling and leave enough time. Especially during the peak season, when there are many tourists, you may need to plan your trip in advance to avoid missing out on your favorite attractions. -

#europetrip #dolomites #italy #seceda We visited Seceda in early autumn, expecting vibrant fall colors, but to our amazement, an overnight snowfall had blanketed the mountain in pure white. The scene was absolutely magical—autumn hues fading into snow-covered peaks under a crisp blue sky. To reach this dreamlike landscape, we took the cable car from Ortisei. The journey itself was an experience, with panoramic views as we ascended to 2,500 meters. Tickets were easy to purchase at the base station, and the ride was smooth and quick, making it accessible for everyone. Once at the top, the view left us breathless, with the iconic ridgeline stretching dramatically into the distance. Seceda in unexpected snow is a sight we’ll cherish forever.

I finally visited the Dolomites, a place I had always wanted to go! Although my schedule was tight, I managed to spend 2 nights in the Dolomites, with 1 night and 2 days dedicated to exploring the western part efficiently. Here's my recommended itinerary 🥳 Day 1: Lake Carezza - Check-in at Ortisei accommodation - Explore Ortisei village - Lunch - Sunset at Santa Maddalena - Accommodation Day 2: Alpe di Siusi - Gelato in Ortisei village - Seceda - Lunch at Sofie Hut in Seceda - Accommodation 【Recommended Attractions】 1. Lake Carezza: This was the most beautiful spot in the Dolomites. We stopped by Lake Carezza as soon as we arrived, and the weather was perfect, making it a truly happy moment 🥹🩵. The vast Alps, the vibrant lake color, and the reflection of the mountains on the clear water were unforgettable. Be sure to visit Lake Carezza! 2. Alpe di Siusi: The second-best spot was Alpe di Siusi! It was the green meadow of my dreams 😭. It reminded me a bit of "Howl's Moving Castle." I was worried there might not be any wildflowers since it was June 1st, but there were plenty in bloom, and the weather was perfect for trekking! It was like stepping into a fairytale 💛. 3. Santa Maddalena: You must visit here for the sunset! The sunset view from Santa Maddalena is one of the best I've ever seen. Since it's a village on a mountain, good weather is essential for a clear view. We were lucky with the weather at the end of May and early June, and we saw the Santa Maddalena mountain range without a single cloud! The only downside was that there were some clouds on the opposite side, so the mountains didn't turn as red during the sunset. Still, we were fortunate to see the mountain range clearly, and it was a wonderful experience 💚. 【Recommended Restaurants】 1. Turonda: We stayed in the center of Ortisei village and visited this pizza place based on Google reviews. When in Italy, you must try pizza! 😊 We ordered a classic Margherita pizza and a gourmet pizza, and both were absolutely delicious. 2. Sofie Hut (Seceda): If you visit Seceda, make sure to stop by Sofie Hut and try their carbonara. It was an authentic Italian carbonara, different from any I've had before, and the best I've ever tasted 💛. 【Recommended Hotel】 1. Hotel Location: Ortisei 2. Hotel Name: Hotel Dolomiti Madonna 3. Hotel Address: Strada Rezia, 267, 39046 Ortisei BZ, Italy 【Photo Spots】 Everywhere you go is a photo spot 😭. Take your time exploring and capturing lots of memorable shots. 【Travel Tips】 If you have more time, it would be great to explore the eastern Dolomites as well. However, for those with a tight schedule like us, focusing on the western region is enough to cover a lot in 1 night and 2 days. Be sure to visit! Also, I recommend purchasing a 1-day Dolomiti Pass for the cable cars, which allows you to visit two places in a day at a much more reasonable price 👍🏻.

Italy's Dolomites When you think of the Alps, Switzerland might come to mind. However, you can also experience the Alps in Italy—and at a much more affordable price than Switzerland! 😉 If you rent a car, getting around is convenient, but I opted for public transportation. I stayed in Bolzano and traveled to various spots in the Dolomites by bus. 💙 How to get to Seceda Take a bus from Bolzano and get off at Ortisei, where you can ride the cable car. ♥️ Seceda Cable Car You can purchase a round-trip ticket, but I only took the cable car up and walked down. It's such a stunning place to just pass by. Take your time and enjoy Seceda at a leisurely pace. 💛 Seceda in mid-June is lush and green, with wildflowers starting to bloom. I spread out a mat and lay down for a while in this beautiful spot—it truly felt like heaven. 💕 Many people combine Seceda and Alpe di Siusi into a single-day visit, but if you have the time, I recommend visiting one place per day. These locations are too breathtaking to rush through. 👍

#March travel support event 1. Turkey I visited Turkey Cappadocia hot air balloon as a package a while ago!! According to the guide, the hot air balloon didn't fly for 13 days due to the weather, but on the day our team applied, the hot air balloon flew for the first time!! It snowed the next day!

Italian Dolomiti Seseda A truly magnificent and wonderful rock mountain!! It was a wonderful mountain that seemed like a mountain spirit would come out.

#EuropeanTravel #Dolomites #Seceda 🪨The landscape that the devil loved, "Seceda" Take the cable car number 2 from Ortisei village Arrived at Seceda😀 Amazed again and again while looking at the green meadows and magnificent stone mountains of Seceda🫶🏻 Coffee while looking at the scenery at a cafe is a bonus for romance~~ You can take another cable car and go down to the middle Seceda seen from below is also a different kind of beauty! It's chilly even in summer because it's high in altitude, so windbreaker is a must✔️ It's good to use the summer pass for the cable car

Italy's Alps, Seceda and Alpe di Siusi. If you plan to visit both places in one day, it is cheaper to buy a summer pass. It is good for trekking courses and also for going by gondola.
