Hi Ryan. Great video. We were there about the same time. (It was incredibly hot for June. No snow aywhere) So many people have said at Seceda, that the camera does not do justice to the actual view. That is SO true. And, St Jakob. If you think that trail is hard going up, try doing it the other way, thru the village!
Thanks Johnny. Much appreciated. Was talking to the owner of the hotel I was staying at, and he was saying the same thing. Was unusually hot for June. The funny thing was, the day after, it snowed!!!! Lol! Agreed, Seceda (and Dolomites in general) is one of those places that no matter how many times you’ve seen them on films they turn out better in person. The opposite of Paris syndrome! :) I can’t imagine that there’s an even harder trail to St Jakob’s church 😂 thank goodness I didn’t go that way! Hope you enjoyed your Dolomites trip regardless. It’s now one of my favourite places on earth.
@@RyanPelle thanks for the reply Ryan. Looking forward to when you go to Austria. Our fav country. Innsbruck. Just go there. We've been there twice and would go again.
Hi Ryan. Such a beautiful video. You’re so genuine! We were in Bolzano last December and did Merano, Ortisei, Soprabolzano, and stayed at Bolzano as a home base. We visited all by local bus, cable cars, and trains. We had a magical Christmas. We are returning in July and planning to do some hiking. Can we reach both Alpe di Suisi and Seceda from Ortisei? Thanks. I Subscribed! 😊
Hi Ryan thank you for sharing your beautiful video documenting your visit to Dolomite! I was there in 2014 and plan to go back in 2025. Glad to know you're from Philippines! Leonie from Maryland, originally from Cebu! By the way, what month did you hike to Dolomite?
Hi, Ryan, thank you for your video, so good!. Please give me some advice if I stay in the hotel in town (cheaper rate) and then drive or catch cable car to the peak, is it a good idea? Which city should I stay in order to enjoy the different points in Dolomites. Besides, Can I bring my own bike when taking the cable car up to the peak? Thank you!
Hello - If you don't have a car (like when I was there), I would suggest staying in Ortisie as loads of beautiful hikes can be accessed from there. The cable car stations are walking distance from the Ortisie town centre so you shouldn't need to drive. I saw people with their bikes on the cable car so that shouldn't be an issue. Enjoy the Dolomites :)
I would say an hour each way. There’s plenty of view points along the way (and benches too) so that kinda helped :) have fun. The view is really worth the hike. I promise :)
I took the train from Rimini to Bolzano. Then took the bus to Ortisie. There should be another video in my channel showing how I’ve done the Dolomites without a car :)
@@RyanPelle thank you sir! What was the month exactly you travel there? My wife and I are American retirees living in south of Italy. It is too hot here in July and August. We like to spend sometime in northern Italy which is much cooler, Thanks for all your help!!!
Not sure if all the trails are open as there might still be snow up in the mountains. I suggest checking the public webcams. They are dotted around the mountains and you can just Google them and see if the trails are passable. Also, some of the cable cars might also not be opened yet so double check that as well. Not sure if there’s a site that lists all the trails situation at least not that I found when researching for this hike.
Hi.i dont know if youll reply.but well at least try.i saw this vid and some of your travel going to dolomites.i noticed that you took cable cars going to diff areas.did you buy single ticket in every trip or is there a ticket pass for the cable cars around dolomites?.thanks just in case you reply
Hey - sorry just saw this. I bought return ticket each time I took the cable car. I’ve only taken 2 return trips (Alpi de Siuse and Seceda. I’m not sure if there’s a ticket you could buy that covers all the cable cars in a particular area.
@@RyanPelle thanks for the fast reply.i was actually looking yesterday online if they have ticket pass for the cables around the dolomites but i found it confusing.lols.maybe because i just started my itinerary.anyways thanks again.il use your vids as guide.hehe.
@@kaysacluti I didn't even look into that LOL! Maybe there is, I will never know lol! Anyway, enjoy the Dolomites. It's one of the most beautiful places on earth!
Omg, this is epic man! You filmed Seceda magnificently!🔥🔥
Thank you. Much appreciated :)
This is definitely the hiking I would like to do! The scenery is just spectacular! Two thumbs up!
Thank you and I have to say, it’s even more beautiful in person so I highly recommend this hike:)
@@RyanPelle Cheers to your inspiring words! Best regards!
Grabe Ang view makainlove😍 amazing kàau👌

@@johnnyoz5424 will be in Austria next summer. Can’t wait for that. Thanks for the rec, will make sure to visit Innsbruck.
Amazing
Agreed. The Dolomites region is one of the most beautiful places on earth ❤️

Thanks for the sub :) yes, alpe di siusi and seceda are both accessible from Ortisie. The cable cars are short walking distance from the town centre.
@@RyanPelle Thank you so much! 😊 Happy Travels!

Hi Leonie. Really nice to hear someone from the US… also Bisaya (I’m from Davao)! Glad you enjoyed the video. I did this hike early June :)
The pure joy on reaching Seceda! So lovely. Also can you let us know where did you stay throughout all this? Hotel names etc
I stayed at Garni Panoramic. Really nice place and relatively cheap. You should see how it looks like as I showed it in one of my other videos.
@@RyanPelle yes just watched the other videos. They were all great. Thank you so much. These will be very handy for my solo trip :)
@@abi5764 You're welcome. Have fun the the Dolomites. It's one of the most beautiful places on earth :)
HI, your videos are amazing, in what season did you go? its super green
Aww thank you. I went in June last year :)

How long was the hike to the church? Thank you!!! Love your videos

Nice view stay safe always insan.
Thank you insan.
Great video!! Which town did you start your joinery? Did you rent a car. What is the closest airport to fly into? Thanks.
I took the train from Rimini to Bolzano. Then took the bus to Ortisie. There should be another video in my channel showing how I’ve done the Dolomites without a car :)
@@RyanPelle so, you used Ortise as a base. Right? What hotel did you stay? Thanks.
yes, Ortisie is a perfect base for when you don’t have a car as there’s loads of cable cars that you can take from there. I stayed in Garni Panoramik.
@@RyanPelle thank you sir! What was the month exactly you travel there? My wife and I are American retirees living in south of Italy. It is too hot here in July and August. We like to spend sometime in northern Italy which is much cooler, Thanks for all your help!!!
I went early June. So everything looks so green and also less people around. I was told it gets busy from July to August :)
Planning to visit Alpe Di Suis, Val de Funes and Seceda in May.. Are the trails open?
Is there a place I can check for all open trails?
Not sure if all the trails are open as there might still be snow up in the mountains. I suggest checking the public webcams. They are dotted around the mountains and you can just Google them and see if the trails are passable. Also, some of the cable cars might also not be opened yet so double check that as well.

Hi, do you remember the number of the hike trail that you did on Seceda?
Hello. I didn’t actually follow a particular trail. I just went on random roads towards the view points.
Did you do both hike in 1 day? Seceda and Alpe di siussi?
Yes, I did. Although I would have preferred to have a day for each location as they’re incredibly beautiful.
@@RyanPelle thank you for replying. I’m going to dolomites next week,so I’m doing my plan
@@TheMato216 im jealous!!!! Have fun :)

When did you hike this?
This was mid-June this year.
What month was this?
Early June :)
Ryan, pila per ride sa cable car?
Murag nakalimut na ko eh. Basta I remember na mas mahal ang Seceda compare sa Alpe di Siusi. Less than €50 for sure.
