A (Guided) Journey Through Time.
Strolling through Ortisei is like traveling through time. Historic villas from the turn of the century, once home to artists and entrepreneurs, take us back to an era when woodcarving brought prosperity to Val Gardena.

You can embark on this journey through time in Ortisei with the help of a knowledgeable guide. The tour, offered in English, German or Italian depending on the participants, lasts 1.5 hours and is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels.

Val Gardena is a paradise for skiers regardless of their level: newbies and passionate amateur skiers spend their holidays in the valley. However, for a few days a year, the skiing slopes of Dolomites Val Gardena attract the creme de la creme of skiing. And you, as our guests, will have the opportunity of following the skiing stars live from the edge of the slopes as they battle for a place on the podium of the FIS World Cup.
The history of the World Cup in Dolomites Val Gardena goes back to the 1970s. The Saslong slope is one of the most beautiful and well-known stages of the world cup, what with its famous and feared ‘camel hump’ and speeds of up to 100 km an hour. The Ski World Cup took place in 1970 in Dolomites Val Gardena, among other places; on that occasion the whole skiing world set its eyes on the Saslong slope. Women and men took part in dozens and dozens of races on the slope as well as on the region’s other famous slopes: Ronc, Ciampinoi and Cir. Today, a super-G and a men’s downhill race take place in Dolomites Val Gardena once a year.
Local celebrities and international legends fulfilled their dream of one day being the winner of the FIS ski World Cup in Dolomites Val Gardena. Among the winners of the downhill we have known skiers such as Peter Müller, Rob Boyd, Michael Walchhofer and Kristian Ghedina.
Bring a touch of magic into your home with one-of-a-kind decorations made of natural materials!
Under guidance, we’ll create beautiful wreaths together – perfectly suited to the season.
From fir branches and pinecones to fruits, and grasses, you’ll work with a rich variety of natural materials.
At the end of the workshop, you can take your handcrafted masterpiece home as a lasting keepsake of this special and creative experience.

-- La nrosadura sun Mont Sëura --
Experience winter in all its splendor on an unforgettable hike in the golden light of the Alpenglow. Together with an experienced hiking guide, you will start your tour at Monte Pana, where a chairlift will take you to the idyllic Mont Sëura alpine meadow, nestled below the imposing Langkofel. Here you can enjoy a magnificent panoramic view – perfect for a souvenir photo at the Viewpoint Mont Sëura. As the sun slowly sets behind the striking peaks of the Dolomites, the Alpenglow bathes the rugged rock faces in glowing shades of red and gold. The spectacular view of this natural wonder will accompany you on the descent back to Monte Pana.
