Getting around
Arriving
San Candido/Innichen. On the Val Pusteria railway (hourly trains from Fortezza on the Brennero line, connecting from Bolzano); the village centre is steps from the station.
Tickets · Suedtirolmobil (SAD network)
Suedtirolmobil app and machines; guest cards often cover the network.
Validate when boarding.
The Pusteria train plus the Tre Cime shuttle from Dobbiaco cover the area's headline day without a car.
On foot
- ·The flat cycle and walking path to Lienz in Austria (downhill the whole way, train back) is the valley's famous outing
- ·The Baranci meadows lift rises from the village edge
Taxis and driving
- ·Handy for the Sesto valley trailheads; the village core is compact and calm
