Funes Valley
Funes Valley is a valley in the Dolomites known for its idyllic scenery. The entire valley is dominated by peaks of grayish-white rock, with meadows, coniferous forests, and scattered villages spreading out along the terrain. The horizon is always framed by rugged, spectacular ridges, showcasing a unique mountain landscape. The valley is dotted with many iconic views. A white-spired chapel complements the peaks behind it, creating a classic postcard composition. Another Baroque-style chapel stands alone on a grassy slope, blending into the surrounding natural environment. Country paths connect different views, with beautiful scenery along the way. The scenery here varies with the seasons. In spring and summer, the vegetation is lush, and the peaks and meadows complement each other.

In winter, it is covered in white snow, revealing a tranquil and pure Alpine valley atmosphere.VillnoB · 8.8 km from Bressanone
Seceda
Seceda stands at a high altitude of approx. 2,500m, surrounded by vast natural mountain scenery. Extending upward from the valley, the scenery along the way gradually transitions from woodlands to open alpine meadows and exposed rocky ridges, showcasing a rich, layered mountain view. What makes this peak particularly striking is its unique, saw-toothed ridge: on one side, gently rolling alpine meadows, and on the other, near-vertical dolomite cliffs. Iconic rock towers line the ridge, outlining a highly recognizable silhouette that has become a famous scenic spot. Standing at the summit and looking out, you can take in the surrounding mountains with an incredibly expansive view. This place is suitable for all seasons. In summer, the mountain is crisscrossed with trails, and walking along the ridge allows for close-up views of the magnificent peaks. In winter, the mountain integrates into a vast ski network, with slopes winding down from the summit, connecting grassy slopes and forests to offer a rich and diverse outdoor experience.Ortisei · 14.3 km from Bressanone
Chiesa di Santa Maddalena
Chiesa di Santa Maddalena is one of the most breathtaking photography spots in the Dolomites, standing quietly on a lush green hill against the backdrop of majestic Dolomite peaks, looking just like a postcard. This church has a long history, with a late Gothic exterior featuring simple and elegant spires and eaves. The interior is decorated in Baroque style, with a gorgeous single-aisle asymmetrical ribbed vault and lifelike ceiling frescoes. The main altar enshrines a portrait of Saint Mary Magdalene, surrounded by statues of saints such as Saint Peter and John the Baptist, creating a serene and sacred atmosphere. In summer, wildflowers bloom; in fall, the forests turn golden; and in winter, the landscape is snow-capped. The walking paths around the church are gentle and easy, and it takes about 30 minutes to walk to the observation deck. Looking back, the church and village dot the meadow, while jagged peaks pierce the sky, allowing you to experience the harmony between humanity and nature.VillnoB · 9.4 km from Bressanone

What travelers say about Bressanone
鲜果果daixi19 August 2025
4.0
I originally wanted to see the sunrise over Jinshan Mountain, but I didn't expect there to be too much traffic. It was already 8 o'clock when I arrived, and the sunset was gone when I parked the car... I still ran up to see it before leaving. 🅿️ There are not many places to go, so you must go early. It is less than 2 kilometers to the popular check-in spot, which takes about 30 minutes to walk. It is a 3-minute drive from the Lonely Church. Drones are not allowed to fly at the Lonely Church. I saw it from a distance after dark and it was quite beautiful.
