# Seceda by cable car from Ortisei What to do en Dolomites · Dolomites Fuente: https://www.geocalia.com/en/italy/dolomites/things-to-do/seceda-cable-car-from-ortisei · Revisado: 2026-11-11 - Desde: 74 € per adult, return - Duración: 3 h - Temporada: Summer and ski season; dates on the Seceda website - Para quién: All ages Two lifts from Ortisei to the Seceda, at about 2,500 m, facing the Odle ridge; €74 return, free for under-8s. What it is The Seceda is a grassy summit above Ortisei, in the Val Gardena, inside the Puez-Odle nature park, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites. Its north face is a grass slope that rises gently and is cut off suddenly in an edge, and in front rises the jagged ridge of the Odle (Geisler). That view, of the green edge facing the grey spires, became famous around the world when Apple used a photo of it as a background in an iMac presentation in 2017. You don't need to walk to see it: two lifts take you from the centre of Ortisei up to about 2,500 metres. The ride up The company Funivie Seceda operates two sections: Ortisei–Furnes gondola: 2,500 metres long and 450 of ascent, from the Ortisei valley station, at about 1,200 metres. Furnes–Seceda cable car: 2,050 metres long and 700 of ascent, to the upper station. On the way up you pass over the Val d'Anna and the archaeological area of Col de Flam. At the top, next to the summit cross, there has been a panoramic viewpoint since 2007 with a 360-degree view and a table with the names and heights of the mountains: from the Tofane to the Sciliar, the Sella, the Sassolungo and the Marmolada, and further off the Brenta, the Ortles or the Grossglockner. Summer 2026 prices For the full Ortisei–Seceda journey: Adults: €74 return, €49 up only or down only. Junior, ages 8 to 15: €37 return, €25 one way. Children aged 0 to 7: free, buying at the same time as an adult. Dogs and bikes: €7 each. The Dolomiti Supersummer card is not valid on these lifts. The Gardena Card is, valid from 6 June to 11 October 2026 (€124 three days, €160 six days for adults), if you are going to use several lifts in the valley. Tickets are bought at the ticket offices or in the Seceda online shop. At the top: what to do The walk along the edge of the ridge to the viewpoints over the Odle takes about an hour, there and back, along a track and path without difficulty. If you want to walk more, walking down to Furnes lets you see the slope from below and save the down ticket: buy only the up. From the summit paraglider tandem flights and mountain bike routes also leave. When to go The lifts open in summer and in the ski season; they are now closed until 4 December. The summer 2027 dates are published on the Seceda website. Go up in the first hour of the morning or at the end of the afternoon: at midday the light is flat on the Odle and in summer there are many people. In July and August storms usually arrive in the afternoon. Check the webcam before paying: with low cloud you will see nothing. Getting there and parking The valley station is on Via Val d'Anna, in Ortisei. The car parks in Ortisei are limited, and the company itself recommends arriving by public transport and buying your ticket online. If you go by bus, get off at the Piazza Sant'Antonio stop: from there it is six minutes on foot, using the La Curta escalators, to the station. With children and dogs With children it is an easy excursion: under-8s do not pay and the walk at the top is flat. Dogs pay €7. At 2,500 metres it is cool even if it is hot below: bring a layer. Combine it with In the same valley you have the Alpe di Siusi by cable car from Siusi. To sleep in Ortisei, the ADLER Spa Resort Dolomiti is a few minutes' walk from the cable car. ## Cómo llegar y contacto - Web: https://www.seceda.it/it/estate - Coordenadas: 46.5977, 11.7245 ## Cerca de aquí - [ADLER Spa Resort Dolomiti](https://www.geocalia.com/en/italy/dolomites/where-to-stay/adler-spa-resort-dolomiti), a 4.7 km - [Alpe di Siusi by cable car from Siusi](https://www.geocalia.com/en/italy/dolomites/things-to-do/alpe-di-siusi-cable-car), a 10.5 km - [Rifugio Lagazuoi](https://www.geocalia.com/en/italy/dolomites/where-to-eat/rifugio-lagazuoi), a 23.0 km - [Rifugio Lagazuoi](https://www.geocalia.com/en/italy/dolomites/where-to-stay/rifugio-lagazuoi), a 23.0 km - [Lagazuoi: cable car and Great War tunnels](https://www.geocalia.com/en/italy/dolomites/things-to-do/lagazuoi-cable-car-war-tunnels), a 23.4 km ## Consejos ### Buy your ticket online The company recommends it: in summer there are queues at the Ortisei ticket office. ### Walk down to Furnes You buy only the up ticket (€49) and see the slope from below. ### Don't count on the Supersummer It is not valid at the Seceda; the Gardena Card is. ## Preguntas frecuentes ### How much does it cost to go up the Seceda? €74 return for adults and €37 for young people aged 8 to 15 in 2026.
