City Walks 4K Walking Tour - Ortisei Italy in the Dolomites - Virtual Treadmill Walk

Today we walk around the town were we based ourselves inthe Dolomites of Italy for three weeks: Ortisei / St. Ulrich. Ortisei has such wonderful charm as it sits mid way up the Val Gardena valley. It's a great base for lots of great day hikes in the area and lots of other cute towns. You can see several of both from earlier vids and by following TravelingMel channel. I hope you enjoy this virtual treadmill walking tour as well.
Keep on steppin' -H

Wikipedia:
Urtijëi; German: St. Ulrich in Gröden; Italian: Ortisei is a town of 4,637 inhabitants in South Tyrol in northern Italy. It occupies the Val Gardena within the Dolomites, a mountain chain that is part of the Alps.
Geography
Urtijëi borders the following municipalities: Kastelruth, Villnöß, Lajen and Santa Cristina Gherdëina.
History
The Ladin-language name Urtijëi derives from the Latin word urtica and the suffix -etum, with the meaning "place of nettles".
From 1860 to 1914 Urtijëi experienced a relevant economic growth due to the opening of a major road connecting Val Gardena to the main railroad; as a result the local woodcarving industry flourished. International tourism developed through the discovery of the Dolomites first by English tourists, and subsequently visitors from other parts of Austria-Hungary as well as the German Empire. Currently, the town's economy is mostly based on winter skiing tourism, summer hiking tourism, and woodcarving.
Main sights
Parish Church of Urtijëi, made in neoclassical style with baroque elements in the last part of the 18th century.
Church of St. Jacob, of ancient foundation, it was remodeled in style Late-Gothic style during the 17th century. It preserves frescoes from the second half of the 15th century and copies of the original baroque furnishings.
Church of St. Antonius, built in the second half of the 17th century, it combines the simple Renaissance style structure with a predominantly baroque decorative structure.
Church of St. Anna, located in the perimeter of the municipal cemetery, it is in Late-Gothic style. Inside it preserves baroque furnishings.
Museum Gherdëina, the local heritage museum, which preserves geological, paleontological and archaeological finds found in the area, as well as a collection of wooden sculptures and toys.
The Luis Trenker House of Culture, housed in a building designed by the architect Hubert Prachensky (1916-2009), preserves the ancient bell of the Magister Manfredinus.
The bronze statue of the Roman legionary, sculpted in wood in 1904 by Johann Baptist Moroder and fused in bronze in 2001, in front at Villa Venezia.
Villa Venezia, home and workshop of the sculptor Johann Baptist Moroder, constructed between 1902 and 1903 following the venetian style of architecture.
According to the Mayo Clinic, a daily brisk walking routine can help you maintain a healthy weight and lose body fat, reduce stress and tension, improve your mood, and consequently live longer. And it doesn’t have to be hard. You can work your way up to longer and faster walks, alternate walking speeds. Just push yourself a little bit every day and you can see benefits. It’s a simple fat burning cardio exercise and workout.
Apparently, every 2000 steps walked reudces the risk of early death by 8-11%.

[@TheEnergydoc]

One of my favorite walks! Thank you...quarantine forced me out of the gym and to buy a treadmill. Have so enjoyed your channel!

[@CityWalks]

Hi Kathryn, I'm so glad to hear it. Ortisei is certainly a beautiful and charming little town and there are many, many more in the area as well that are just a bit more challenging to get to. Thanks for watching and keep on steppin' -H

[@pamduncan2497]

With every video you do of towns in and around the Dolomites, I'm thinking it's the most beautiful town yet. Am thinking that again after this walk! 😊 Everything is pristine and every inch of the town seems so CLEAN, including the air!

[@CityWalks]

Hi Pam, Thanks, and yes, these towns are beautiful and lovely. Thanks for watching. -H

[@walkingaroundcentralflorid1173]

Thanks for sharing such a nice video!! The shot inside the chapel was so cool to see such a beautiful place.

[@CityWalks]

Thanks. I thought maybe the chapel would have people in there and didn't want to bother anyone but then I saw it was empty and could go in a bit. Cheers, -H

[@kimiastewart6293]

I like the chalet style buildings

[@CityWalks]

Hi Kimia, Me too! -H

[@judyp9131]

Wonderfully interesting walk! The greenery, flowers, buildings and structures are amazing. Adding Ortisei to my bucket list! Thank you for this lovely walk.

[@CityWalks]

Hi Judy, it's a charming little town for sure. There are several others in the area but this has the advantage of several buses branching out to other areas. -H

[@relaxingsilentfilms-LosAngeles]

we are visiting in 2 months.. hope we get Ok weather..

[@CityWalks]

I hope so too. It's a charming town and beautiful area. Have a great trip. -H

[@PhotoLukeHawaii]

Beautiful walk! What are you using these days for these walks? I clicked on your gear and it looks like iphone 13? I'm looking at other options aside from GoPro 11 eventually. I like the proportions, not much distortion at all, light and dark balanced pretty well (maybe you edited a little) but it all looks great! I have a Nikon Z6 with a big gimbal to do walks now but, would rather not carry that heavy gear if I don't have to. Happy New Year! Thanks for this awesome walk!

[@CityWalks]

Hi Luke, I've been using the Osmo Pocket 2 with handle and lav. It works really well and has a mode that tries to increase the dynamic range. It's been around awhile and I'm hoping they'll do an upgrade soon but it works really well. I use the iPhone 13 on the very rare occasions I live stream. Hope you are doing well. -H

[@PhotoLukeHawaii]

@@CityWalks wow yeah I looked at the Osmo Pocket 2 a while ago... wow it does a great job for such a small camera! Yes doing well! Hope you and the family are doing well too! Aloha =)

[@scootstate8480]

You really disappointed me when you showed us that ramp going up to the gondola and then backed away. You redeemed yourself when we got to go in the church. That was a rare treat for most of your walks. Overall, I really enjoyed it. (I wasn't that disappointed but I was screaming at the screen- "😁yes yes let's go there!"

[@CityWalks]

Thanks for watching. -H

[@luca_berna]

Hi, very cool video! I live there, but I have never heard, that val d'ann has an michelin star, are you sure about that?😅

[@CityWalks]

Buongiorno Luca, I am not sure. I was probably going by something I heard. We certainly enjoyed our time there. -H

[@adel7187]

Beautiful place 😍

[@CityWalks]

It really is! Thanks Ad El. -H

[@walk_street]

[@CityWalks]

Hi Jalan and welcome. I hope you make it there someday too. I'll keep an eye out. -H

[@walk_street]

thank you, success is always for you😃👍

[@msaghjk]

Useless. Could not show much of the main town

[@CityWalks]

Not sure what you mean Marshal. I literally walked through the main town. All the best. -H
