Exploring the UNESCO World Heritage site

Winter hiking in the Dolomites

Experience your winter stay in Selva di Val Gardena in a gentle yet intense way: a walk from the Col Raiser mountain station takes you through the impressive landscape of the unique Puez-Odle Nature Park. The snow-covered mountains, deep silence and luminous white create an experience for the mind and senses.

The moment you leave the mountain station and step onto the path beneath the Odle peaks, you’re immersed in a world of white, light and vastness. The approximately 4.7 km trail, with around 207 metres of ascent and descent, takes you through quiet slopes, across the Mastlé Alm and past idyllic Alpine huts to the Troier Hut. Particularly impressive is the panorama of the Sella Group stretching above. The clear air tastes of snow and freedom. In the exceptional tranquillity of this landscape, every step feels like a gift.
