Chalet Rasciesa In Ortisei

€32 return trip. There are a few restaurants at the top. You can also sled down; a helmet is required.

Magnificent climb and excellent toboggan run. The route to the cabin and the ascent to the cross is a must. Descent via the chapel and a short break to admire the Dolomites. A must-do hike!

a nice lift to a beautiful walk

Great for reaching the sledding slope. Equipment is included in the price of the lift ticket.

Beautiful in both winter and summer, it takes just a few minutes to reach the top, offering spectacular views.

The funicular takes you up Mount Resciesa for an easy and beautiful hike, both in summer and winter (the trail is easy, but ice can easily be encountered, so crampons are recommended). The view is splendid, including Sasso Lungo and Sasso Piatto, Sella, and more.

From Monte Resciesa (Alpe di Resciesa) in Val Gardena you can enjoy a 360° panoramic view of the Dolomites, with spectacular panoramas of the Sassolungo Group, the Sella, the Marmolada, the Odle, the Alpe di Siusi, the Val di Funes and the Valle Isarco, all the way to the Zillertal Alps, making it a privileged vantage point for admiring the UNESCO peaks and surrounding landscapes.

A spectacular sight; the landscape is beautiful, the combination of the Dolomites and the little houses with their wooden roofs and full of flowers is very beautiful.

The cable car ride itself is a small adventure – especially if you sit right at the front and dare to gaze down into the depths. If you're not afraid of heights, you'll love the view even during the ride! The prices, however, are less pleasant: For an adult and a seven-year-old child, you pay a hefty €56. The lady at the ticket office could have been a bit friendlier too – she apparently didn't think it was appropriate for us to sit down on the bench before buying our tickets. After the steep hike from the parking garage (it's really quite uphill!), we just needed a moment to catch our breath. Once at the top, however, the slight annoyance is quickly forgotten. The view is simply breathtaking – mountains as far as the eye can see, and a feeling of freedom that is hard to describe. An absolute highlight! If you like, you should definitely plan the leisurely walk to the summit cross. At around 1.5 hours (if you take it easy), the trail is easily manageable and leads through beautiful alpine scenery. Just before the summit cross, the rustic Raschötz Alpine Hut awaits hungry hikers, and right at the mountain station, you can also stop for a bite to eat and round off the day. We were there at the end of August.

Excellent views of the valley on the way up and down. The ride was uneventful. Unfortunately, the cost is too high.
