How to get to Seceda?

Posted by on

Hello! I discovered I will have time in my trip to the Dolomites to visit Seceda. My plan is to use the Ortisei - Furnes - Seceda Cable cars. I will be driving into Ortisei with a rental car that day, and from my understanding there is a parking garage at the base of the Ortisei cable car area that i can leave the car and take the two cable cars up to seceda..
My questions are:

I plan to arrive anywhere between 9-10am in late July; will i be able to just drive up there or do i have to make reservations in advance? i am looking at this website https://www.val-gardena.com/en/summer/mobility/ but i dont see any place to purchase these tickets. Is it recommended to buy these in advance if possible, or is the issue of them being sold out not a common thing for Seceda? BTW, how much cash should i bring, or do they take card?

Also, is there a direct link to be able to see and make sure the cable cars will be running on that day; just in case bad weather might happen?
If anyone can kindly walk me through what this process looks like,

Thanks!

They will be running and you can just walk up. Payment by card is accepted. These lifts are rarely closed with the possible exception of severe weather, in which case you wouldn’t want to go up.

Here is a place to see the status of all lifts:

The two cable cars you will be taking are the Ortisei-Furnes and the Furnes - Seceda, you can buy the tickets when you get there, no need to pre-purchase them if you don't want to.

Parking is limited, they do their best to find parking for everyone but it does fill up. We were there last July 11th (a tuesday) and arrived at 10:30. We were one of the last ones to get a parking space.

My advice would be to show up either early in the morning or mid afternoon when people have started to leave for the day. There is no way to prebook a parking space.
