Smart Planning with the Südtirol Guide App: Digital Tools for Villa Angelino Guests

If you want to make every day in the Dolomites count, the Südtirol Guide App is your smartest travel companion. From Villa Angelino’s central address in Ortisei—just a five‑minute walk to the Alpe di Siusi, Rasciesa, and Seceda/Sellaronda lifts—you can use the Südtirol Guide App to discover restaurants, hikes, events, and public transport options across South Tyrol with a few taps. Pair this free digital guide with our rich breakfast of local products, our peaceful garden oasis, and free access to the Mar Dolomit pool and saunas, and you’ve got everything you need for effortless holiday planning.

Why the Südtirol Guide App belongs on your phone

The Südtirol Guide App is South Tyrol’s official digital travel guide designed to help you plan confidently and move easily.

• Find nearby restaurants, hikes, events, museums, and activities tailored to your interests and location.
• Book and buy select event tickets directly in the app.
• Activate geolocation to see what’s around you and navigate via the integrated map.
• Plan your trip using local public transport.
• Use your personal area for weather notifications and favourites to organise your days.

Because the app is free to download, it’s a low‑effort, high‑value tool you can start using before you arrive—and keep open while you explore Ortisei and beyond.

Make the most of Villa Angelino’s location with the app

Villa Angelino puts you in the heart of Ortisei—quiet, green, and central inside the pedestrian area—so the Südtirol Guide App immediately becomes more powerful from the moment you step outside.

• Five‑minute walk to key lifts: Alpe di Siusi, Rasciesa, and Seceda/Sellaronda are all reachable on foot in about five minutes. Use the app’s map and transit planner to time ascents and pick hikes or panoramic viewpoints that fit your day.
• Public transport within easy reach: The main square bus stop is a short walk from the B&B. The app’s local transport planning helps you reach trailheads, villages, and cultural sites across South Tyrol without guesswork.
• Valgardena Active program: As our guest, you’re admitted to the Valgardena Active program with guided hikes and bike tours in summer, and guided snowshoe hikes, winter walks, or night tobogganing in winter. Use the app to complement your schedule with nearby activities, museums, or dining before or after your guided outing.
• Pool & sauna time, perfectly timed: All guests enjoy free entry to the public Mar Dolomit complex (about 600 m away) with year‑round heated indoor and outdoor pools, ten different saunas, and an outdoor jacuzzi. Check the app for nearby eateries or events to pair with your spa time.
• Start strong, plan smart: Fuel up at our rich breakfast buffet featuring local products, then open your favourites in the app and set a realistic route for the morning lift, lunch, and afternoon activities—without backtracking.

For added convenience, Villa Angelino provides free high‑speed Wi‑Fi, an open on‑site car park, a charging point for electric vehicles, an elevator, and a quiet garden—so you can download maps, sync favourites, and plan in comfort. Cyclists benefit from our Bike Friendly designation, and winter guests have a dedicated ski‑boot dryer and storage area.

A step‑by‑step way to use the app during your stay

1. Download the Südtirol Guide App before you arrive so you can build a shortlist of favourites.
2. Enable location on site in Ortisei to see hikes, restaurants, and events within easy walking or bus reach from Villa Angelino.
3. Filter by interest (e.g., hiking difficulty, family‑friendly attractions, cuisine type) to surface matching options.
4. Save favourites to group your must‑dos for each day—morning lift rides, lunchtime stops, afternoon museums or wellness, and evening dining.
5. Plan public transport for day trips or to reach specific trailheads; the app’s map makes connections and timing clearer.
6. Book event tickets where available to secure your spot without queues.
7. Check weather notifications so you can pivot from a ridge walk to a museum or spa visit when conditions change.

Pro tip: Open your favourites at breakfast, confirm opening hours or lift times in the app, and choose a realistic loop that avoids backtracking—and maximises views.

How the app elevates summer stays in Val Gardena

In summer, the Südtirol Guide App helps you:

• Identify scenic hikes that start from the top of Alpe di Siusi, Rasciesa, or Seceda—each a short walk to the lift from Villa Angelino.
• Time your lift rides to avoid bottlenecks and match your planned loop or altitude.
• Discover bike routes that fit your style and duration; combine with our Bike Friendly setup for a smooth start.
• Add culture to your nature day by finding nearby museums or events and purchasing tickets through the app where possible.
• Plot a relaxed finish: a late‑afternoon return for garden downtime, followed by a session at Mar Dolomit and dinner within strolling distance.

How the app streamlines winter days in Ortisei

In winter, pair the app with our five‑minute access to the lifts and the Valgardena Active offerings:

• Find winter walks, snowshoe routes, and toboggan options that suit your group.
• Use the app’s map for the quickest route from the pedestrian area to your chosen start point.
• Plan a post‑ski wellness session at Mar Dolomit; the app helps you locate nearby dining to round out the evening.
• Check cultural listings to add a concert or exhibition to your itinerary on rest days.

Back at the B&B, our ski‑boot dryer and storage keep your gear ready for the next outing, and our 24/7 self‑service Honesty Bar offers chilled drinks, snacks, and wines for a cosy night in.
