Passo Gardena (2,121 m) links Selva di Val Gardena with Corvara in Alta Badia, running along the dramatic eastern cliffs of the Sella Group.
It's a stage on the Sellaronda and the start of the Tridentina via ferrata and of hikes towards Rifugio Pisciadù.
Passo Gardena feels quieter than its neighbours. In summer the wide meadows fill with hikers; in winter they turn into a playground for skiers and snowshoers. Because it sits close to Selva and Colfosco, it's one of the easiest passes to reach for a quick scenic trip.
