Seceda - Pieralongia - Rifugio Firenze - Juac - Selva

The Seceda with its 2.500 meters is the highest vantage point in Val Gardena. As soon as you arrive at the mountain station, the breathtaking landscape assure that your view will be lost for miles in the natural skyline of the Dolomites. We recommend continuing the excursion only after calmly admiring these beautiful surroundings. The Sassolungo and the Sella group will make you fall in love. On your left arises the majestic Odle-Group with its easily recognizable, typical rock formations.

Calmly continuing our walk towards the Odle-Group, we can enjoy a sense of freedom emanating from the beautiful surroundings. We will choose the highest route in order to walk past the panoramic point shown in the pictures. The alpine flowers will reveal themselves before you like a natural carpet of a thousand colors.

Following the indicated path, you will find yourself at an intersection with a path leading uphill and one leading downhill; you will choose the one downhill that will take you past the Troier-Refuge towards Pieralongia. After one hour of walking you will reach the Pieralongia Refuge at the bottom of two “stone-teeth” rising from the ground towards the sky.

From here another hour of walking will lead you to the famous Rifugio Firenze and from there - in about an hour and a half - to the Rifugio Juac to finish your journey in Selva di Val Gardena.

This is the long trip, the one that you can easily do in a whole day, where you walk immersed in a magical place of many colors conveying inner peace and total relaxation.

Only after taking all the photos, you can continue towards the Fermeda Refuge, another idyllic piece of paradise. From the Fermeda-Hut you will descend for another 10 minutes to take the chairlift that will take you back to 2.500 meters, but if you wish you can make a small stop at Baita Cuca, which is next to the Fermeda chairlift.

Once at the top again, all that remains is to enjoy the spectacular view for a while, before reaching the top-station that will take you back to Ortisei. A trip that will remain etched in your heart forever!
