Selva - Wolkenstein - Selva di Val Gardena: Val Gardena - Citta dei Sassi
Passo Sella lies on a high pass in Italy’s Dolomites, where it joins Val Gardena with Val di Fassa. At 2,218 metres, the route runs between the Sella Group and the Sassolungo massif, linking valleys whose communities belong to the Ladin cultural area. The pass is crossed by the SS242 and forms part of the roads circling the Sella Group, a celebrated challenge for road cyclists. Hiking paths and ski lifts connect it with the wider Dolomiti Superski area. Pale limestone towers and alpine pastures reflect the geology behind the Dolomites’ UNESCO World Heritage listing in 2009.

Selva di Val Gardena sits in the upper Val Gardena valley in Italy’s Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol region, where the Sella Group and Sassolungo massif define the Dolomite horizon. The village belongs to the Ladin cultural area, and Ladin remains part of everyday local identity alongside Italian and German. It is one of Val Gardena’s three main communities and has direct road links towards the Gardena and Sella passes. In warmer months, marked paths reach high pastures and mountain huts; winter brings access to the Sella Ronda ski circuit.

Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol is renowned across Italy for the Dolomites, whose pale limestone massifs define much of its eastern skyline. This autonomous region follows the upper Adige basin, from vineyards and apple orchards around Bolzano to high valleys crossed by glaciers and Alpine passes. Its character is distinctly multilingual: Italian and German are official languages, while Ladin remains in use in several Dolomite valleys. Medieval castles, Tyrolean customs and Italian city life meet in a borderland historically connected with Tyrol.

Among the countries of southern Europe, Italy stands out for its Mediterranean coastline and cities marked by the legacy of ancient Rome. The Alps form its northern frontier, while the Apennines run down the peninsula and the Po crosses the broad plain of the north. Rome’s Colosseum and Roman Forum recall the ancient empire; Florence is closely associated with the Renaissance, and Venice is built across a lagoon on the Adriatic. Food changes markedly between regions, from olive-oil cooking in the south to rice dishes in the Po Valley. Sicily and Sardinia add distinct island identities to a country whose regions retain strong local character.
