[@KayTongguo]

I can’t imagine driving on that road… great hidden gem though 👏👏

[@LaurenJason]

Hahah really tough to drive but sort of worth it

[@nancyferreira2317]

So good guys 😍

[@LaurenJason]

Really appreciate that Nancy!

[@sirrichard77]

Amazing video footage 👌

[@LaurenJason]

Thank you very much Richard!

[@melnivi]

Amazing video! Val Gardena is my favourite place. Did you guys visit on October?

[@LaurenJason]

We absolutely loved it there and yes during October!

[@meaghanbrown4410]

Hi there! When exactly in October did you go? We will be there the first week of October and are curious about gondola closures.

[@LaurenJason]

We were there from October 1st to 21st! The gondolas seem to slightly change closure dates every year depending on weather conditions. Sometimes they stay open all the way until early November and sometimes as early as late September.

[@toddsharp4245]

Took the “Coffin” up (and down) last September. Most unique trip I think I’ve ever been on. And yeah, that’s a hell of a hike to reach the top. Think it was 18 euro round trip.

[@LaurenJason]

That’s awesome you got to do it! They say it fits 2 people but we don’t know about that haha did you think it could have squeezed 2 people?

[@toddsharp4245]

@@LaurenJasonTwo normal sized people without backpacks yes, but it’d be a tight fit. Another thing about them is that they don’t stop, you’ve got to jump in on the fly (door is on the back).

[@LaurenJason]

@@toddsharp4245 oh wow… never heard of a cable car like that! Sounds kind of cool though

[@mhchai9655]

I will be there in next two week. May I know where to reach that cable car mentioned. Appreciate if u can share the location?

[@LaurenJason]

@@mhchai9655 if you type in “Telecabine Gondelbahn Forcella del Sassolungo” into Google Maps it will take you right to the cable car!

[@skkalma947]

Nice video ❣️

[@LaurenJason]

Thank you very much!

[@juanguido8014]

Hello guys, good channel! One question for you: where did you take the lift to Seceda? Did it take you all the way up to the ridge? Great photos, videos ... thanks for sharing.

[@LaurenJason]

Hello! The lift is right in the town of Ortisei. Search up Funivie Seceda Spa on Google Maps and that will take you directly to the bottom of the chairlift. Paid parking is also right beside it. It does take you all the way to the top. Do NOT take the Col Raiser chairlift as that does NOT go to the very top and requires lots of hiking to reach the best viewpoint.

[@juanguido8014]

@@LaurenJason thanks guys, I'll follow your recommendations. Great videos, like your content. Cheers,Juan

[@LaurenJason]

@@juanguido8014 Thank you and have fun!

[@pauldevaney3109]

Because of your video I added the Earth Pyramids and a stay in St. Cristina instead of Ortisei for our trip. Thank s.

[@LaurenJason]

That is amazing to hear Paul! It’s a really unique area of the Dolomites you generally don’t see very often!

[@mhchai9655]

Me too, just added this spot. I will be there in September, thanks for sharing.

[@LaurenJason]

@@mhchai9655 amazing! So glad to hear that our video helped share this incredible place!

[@user-wr4yl7tx3w]

are the large grass areas fenced?

[@LaurenJason]

Yes because the grass areas are actually private land!

[@wiardvdberg]

When do you guys go there?

[@LaurenJason]

This was in very early October!

[@salomegogoladze6432]

What time did you get there?

[@LaurenJason]

For which place? Or do you mean the time of the year?

[@FaryalZubair77]

What month did you guys go in?

[@LaurenJason]

We were here in late September-early October!
