Urtijei - St. Ulrich in Groden - Ortisei

Ortisei lies in the Val Gardena valley, beneath the jagged Dolomite slopes of Seceda and the Sassolungo group. This South Tyrolean town is one of the principal Ladin-speaking communities of the valley, where Italian, German and Ladin identities meet. Its long-established woodcarving tradition remains central to local culture; the Museum Gherdëina documents regional art, crafts and natural history. Cable cars lead from town towards Seceda and Alpe di Siusi, while the pedestrian centre concentrates shops, cafés and carved-wood workshops. The Dolomites around Val Gardena form part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Discover how Ortisei relates to Val Gardena and the wider Dolomites by browsing nearby webcams.
