Getting around
Arriving
none nearby. No railway in the valley. Suedtirolmobil buses climb from Bolzano and from Ponte Gardena station through Ortisei to Selva.
Tickets · Suedtirolmobil (SAD network)
The Ciampinoi and Dantercepies lifts frame the village; in season the valley bus shuttles the three Gardena villages every few minutes.
Suedtirolmobil app and machines; many hotels issue guest cards covering the whole provincial network.
Validate when boarding.
Ask about the guest mobility card first; with it the valley and the Sella pass buses are effectively free.
On foot
- ·The Vallunga flat valley walk behind the village is the gentle classic; the Sella Ronda circles above by lift in summer and winter alike
Taxis and driving
- ·The Sella and Gardena pass loops are legendary drives, but summer restrictions and queues are real; the buses know the timetable better than your patience does
