I'm thinking about a trip in the Dolomites, probably Sept 15th-20th or so. I know the lifts close at the end of the season but I've been having trouble finding out when the season is considered over. According to https://www.valgardena.it/en/summer-holidays-dolomites/lifts/ for example, it says
The first lifts in Val Gardena will start summer operation on 11 May 2024 and the last lifts will close at the beginning of November 2024.
Elsewhere on the site it says
The Val Gardena Card gives you unlimited use of all lift facilities in Val Gardena (18) open during the summer:
Gardena Card is valid from 01.06. until 13.10.2024
So is it a safe assumption the lifts run until October 13th, or might some start closing earlier? I'd love to find someone who was there at the start of October and could say "yep, all lifts running when we were there"
