Sass Pordoi

Checkout wasn't until noon so we decided to do a quick hike before checking out. There was a gondola--Sass Pordoi--just across the street from our hotel.


It was costly to ride the gondola--€17/person for a 5-minute ride.


There is a mini museum inside the gondola station. There is a dedication to Maria Piaz, the woman who brought tourism to the area. She died in 1971 at the age of 94.






Beautiful view on the ride up to the top


Hang gliders enjoying the view in a different way


View of the valley with serpentine roads.


Next to the gondola station is a dedication to bicyclists who race on the pass.
