With the Gardena Card and the Val Gardena Mobil Card, using a car becomes unnecessary. The Gardena Card gives you unlimited access to numerous lifts, while the Val Gardena Mobil Card offers free use of all public transportation. You can find more information under Val Gardena Active.
Each season has its charm: in spring and summer, the meadows are filled with colorful flowers, while in autumn, the forests are painted with warm, enveloping hues. Even in winter, you can enjoy the magic of snow-covered landscapes with snowshoes, walking in a muffled silence that only snow can provide.
