Am I crazy or do some people pronounce it 'Ortezzi'? I studied in South Tyrol in college and swear that's how it was being pronounced but could be misremembering.

Thank you for this great video, will come handy when we visit the area early summer. Btw, just the other day I came across your blog (independently of this video) and took notes from a great post about Val Gardena. 😃 Lots of inspiration and information! 🙏❤

Nice video! We were there in September 2019. Ortesei is a perfect spot to set up base to explore from. Alpe di Siusi is such a wonderful area for hiking/mountain biking. Seceda is one of the highlights of the area which is also accessed via gondola from Ortesei. The Gardena Pass drive over to Cortina d'Ampezzo is must must do if you have the time. Stop for lunch and head back a different route to Ortesei for fantastic views. Tre Cime, Lago Di Braies and Val di Funes are places not to miss. What a stunning place and can't wait to get back there!

Thanks for the video. Very helpful. The Dolomites will be at the end of our 10 weeks in Italy. I was only planning on a couple days but looks like now it should be at least a week.

You definitely want as much time as you can get in the Dolomites! We were there for a month and could have stayed longer.

Thanks for this great video. I'm hoping to go in mid October. It looks like that's when you were there. Are the refugios in the area open for lunches then even though it's late for the season? Thanks!

When we were there, some of the refugi were closing at the end of September and early October. Some are open year-round, but it's worth double-checking. I believe many of them reopen for winter, but probably not all of them.

Hi, is it possible to do seceda and alp de suisi on the same day? Are the cable cars close by..
@CityWalks
@CityWalks 5 ай бұрын
If you take the cable cars/Gondolas out of Ortisei, then I'd say yes. They are on opposite sides of the valley though so it might be a long day depending on how much you wanted to hike. -H

@@lenaj.8881 Absolutely, it's only a short bus ride up the valley from Oritisei (10mins). We actually walked back one day and it didn't take very long. There's also a neat train tunnel as museum about WWI and the railroad. I filmed a walk from there down valley. -H (from TMEL)
