Seceda Ridge Walk

The walk down from Seceda, under the tilted blade of rock that is the most photographed skyline in the Dolomites. The cable car from Ortisei lands at 2,493 m on the ridge; the path drops east below the Fermeda towers, past the Pieralongia rocks and Rifugio Firenze under the Odle north faces, and finishes at the Col Raiser gondola.
