When to Visit Alpe di Siusi, Italy
Summer Season: Early June until late October
In summer, Alpe di Siusi is a popular walking and biking destination. The Ortisei-Alpe di Siusi Gondola and the Alpe di Siusi Aerial Cableway usually operate between late May and late October/early November.
Alpe di Siusi mountain huts and alpine pasture huts (Schwaige/Alm/Malga) are also usually open from late May until late October. Check opening times of specific huts, before planning your visit, because opening times are always subject to change.
We’ve visited Alpe di Siusi in early July, August, and October. Our most memorable visit was in early July when the entire plateau was carpeted in wildflowers.
October is also a lovely time to visit Seiser Alm, because the trails are blissfully empty and the bordering mountains are usually dusted in snow.
Winter Season: Early December until early April
Alpe di Siusi attracts every type of winter sport enthusiast between early December and late March/early April.
Alpe di Siusi is part of the Val Gardena ski area. The Val Gardena-Alpe di Siusi ski area has 175 km of slopes. In addition to catering to downhill skiers, Alpe di Siusi is a popular destination for cross-country skiing, toboggan rides, and snow shoeing.
Alpe di Siusi Hiking Trails: Top 5
1. Hans and Paula Steger Trail
The Hans and Paula Steger Path (“Hans und Paula Steger Weg” in German, “Sentiero Hans e Paula Steger” in Italian) is an easy hiking trail which connects Compaccio/Compatsch with Saltria atop Alpe di Siusi.
This popular Alpe di Siusi walk is named after Hans Steger and Paula Wiesinger, two prominent South Tyrolean mountaineers and skiers who created a foundation for the natural conservation of the Alpe di Siusi plateau.
The path ambles across rolling mountain pastures and pockets of forest, delivering memorable views of the Sassolungo/Langkofel and Sciliar/Schlern mountain groups.
Along the way, you can detour to some of Alpe di Siusi’s most acclaimed alpine pasture huts for gourmet South Tyrolean cuisine.
It’s possible to shorten this hike, by returning to Compaccio by bus. In Saltria, take the Almbus (Route 11) back to Compaccio. This bus is 3 EUR (cash only) and runs every 20 minutes during the day.

2. Compaccio – Rifugio Bolzano – Rifugio Alpe di Tires Loop
This is a full-day adventure for enthusiastic hikers, who want to summit the Schlern plateau and see the Catinaccio/Rosengarten mountains up close.
Starting at Compaccio/Compatsch, the trail crosses the Alpe di Siusi meadows to Saltnerhütte in Tschapit.
Next, the path ascends to the Sciliar/Schlern Plateau, home to the castle-like Rifugio Bolzano (Schlernhaus). From the refuge, it’s possible to detour (20 minutes one-way) to Monte Pez/Petz (2563 m), the highest point of Sciliar/Schlern.
The trail traverses the high plateau of Sciliar Altopiano and then descends dramatically between the Sciliar massif and Catinaccio mountains to Rifugio Alpe di Tires.
From Rifugio Alpe di Tires, you’ll hike over the Denti di Terrarossa/Rosszähne peaks and descend back to Alpe di Siusi.

3. Compaccio to Rifugio Alpe di Tires
Rifugio Alpe di Tires is a first-rate refuge, located on the Passo Alpe di Tires/Tierser Alpl Sattel mountain pass, between the Sciliar/Schlern Group, the Catinaccio/Rosengarten Group and the Sassolungo/Langkofel Group. It’s one of our favorite huts in the Dolomites because of the modern interiors and the delicious food.
We highly recommend hiking to Rifugio Alpe di Tires via the Rifugio Bolzano circuit trail outlined above. However, if you have less time, you can do an out-and-back hike from Compaccio.
From Compaccio, follow trail 7, which is a paved road, up to the Panorama restaurant.
From the Panorama restaurant, follow trail 2 across rolling meadows to the Sciliar/Schlern massif. A series of boardwalks guide walkers across marshy areas of the plateau.
The path continues to ascend, bringing you to the base of the craggy Denti di Terrarossa/Rosszähne peaks (“Horse Teeth” peaks).
Hike up the steep switchbacks to the Forcella Denti di Terrarossa/Rosszahnscharte saddle. This part can be more challenging due to the scree.
Once you crest the Forcella Denti di Terrarossa/Rosszahnscharte saddle, you’ll be greeted with wondrous views of the Catinaccio/Rosengarten mountains.
Turn right and follow the narrow footpath down to the red-roofed Rifugio Alpe di Tires/Tierser Alpl mountain hut. We highly recommend eating a long, leisurely lunch here.
For the best views of the hut, continue along the partially secured trail 3A in the direction of Passo Molignon/Molignonpass.
When we hiked to Tierser Alpl the first time, we returned to Alpe di Siusi by the same route. However, you can descend to Alpe di Siusi via trails 4, 8, 7 (see map).

5. Alpe di Siusi Meadows Circuit Trail
Our Alpe di Siusi Meadows Loop Trail combines the best part of the Alpe di Siusi-Monte Pana Trail with the best stretch of the Hans and Paula Steger Path. It stays on the plateau the whole time, ambling across rolling meadows. This route doesn’t scale mountains, or descend to the valley.
If you’re based in Val Gardena, this is the best way to see Seiser Alm in a few hours.
From the Ortisei-Alpe di Siusi gondola mountain station, follow trail 9 to Schgaguler Schwaige and all the way down to Saltria, a small settlement on the plateau.
Next, ascend the Hans and Paula Steger Trail (trail 30) in the direction of Compaccio/Compatsch, detouring to Gostner Schwaige and Rauchhütte along the way.
Complete the circuit to the Ortise-Alpe di Siusi gondola mountain station via Baita Sanon.

Hello! Loving the site as we plan our honeymoon in the Dolomites! We will be there a total of 7 days, starting in the Stevio region.
Afterwards, we head to Seiser Alm. Initially, we planned to just do a day hike in the Alpe De Siusi but after reading one of your awesome posts, decided we have to stay overnight at Rifugio de Tires. From here, we would like to hike to another hut, and possibly stay a third night in a hut. What are your recommendations for staying 1 extra night or 2 extra nights in a hut?
We will have a car and so can be flexible on where we start/end. Maybe Rifugio de Tires shouldn’t be our first stop? I read your post on the 3 day hike that starts in Carezza but it doesn’t seem like we would be able to spend time in the Alpe de Siusi (We have 3.5 full days max to spend on this portion of the trip!)
Thank you so much!!
Hi Sofia,
On the 3 Day Rosengarten Hike, you could hike down to Alpe di Siusi via Rifugio Bolzano (after staying the night in Tierser Alpl). The problem is, I don’t know how easy it is to get back to your car in Carezza from Val Gardena. It may only be possible via Bozen/Bolzano. Also check out this 3 day hike.
