Hi,
We recommend following the route as described. But, it’s always possible to modify the route as needed.
Kindly,
Sabrina

Hi. Thank you for all of the clear and detailed information. I’m wondering if this hike can be modified to Pieralongia – the UNESCO Dolomites panoramic balcony – Rifugio Firenze – Baita Odles Seggiovia Fermeda Lift. And whether it’s recommended?

In reply to Arzu. Hi Arzu, Please read How to Get to the Dolomites. There are direct buses from Bolzano to Ortisei, Val Gardena. Best, Sabrina

Hi Scott,
If you hike Seceda-Pieralongia Alm-Rifugio Firenze-Col Raiser mountain station, it would be 1:45 – 2 hours, 5.6 km point-to-point, and 430 meters descending/62 meters ascending.
From col raiser valley station, you can take a bus to Santa Cristina and Ortisei (perhaps 2 buses in total). It’s possible, yes.

How would you route the hike from the top of Seceda Cable Car to the finish at top of Col Raiser Cableway? (trying to make the hike shorter and easier) Distance? Uphill elevation? Then take Col Raiser Cableway back down. Can we get a bus to take us back to Seceda cableway to our parked car in the 3rd week of June?

Another wonderful recommendation from you wonderful ladies. We did this yesterday and it was amazing. 360 views like Tre Cime the whole time! This was definitely the hardest hike we did because of the long ascent at the end. If you don’t normally hike, it will be crazy difficult for you. But otherwise just take your time, stop at the huts and enjoy the views. Or consider taking the fermeda chair lift back up to Seceda if you don’t want to do the climb.

Hi Peijet,
Thank you!!!
The hike from Rifugio Firenze to Seceda is neither technical, nor difficult, but is it uphill (500 meters). I would encourage you to do it (with breaks), unless that sounds like too much. The hike from Seceda to Pieralongia is probably 40 minutes one-way (2.1 km one-way), so only 1:20 hrs total.

Hello Sabrina,

Love your website so much! Thank you for all the details just a question to ask as it seems that the hike back from the Rifugio to the mountain station seems to be a bit tough – how long will the hike be if we finished at Pieralongia and return the same way we came?
