Alpe di Siusi, also known as Seiser Alm, is a stunning alpine meadow located in the Dolomites of Italy. It's actually the highest alpine meadow in all of Europe! This place is like something out of a fairytale, with its lush green meadows, charming cabins, and majestic peaks towering overhead.

One of the places you have to visit in Italy is Alpe di Siusi, in the Dolomites! This beautiful meadow is a UNESCO world heritage site and sits on a mountaintop next to Ortisei. Alpe di Siusi, also known as Seiser Alm, is the largest high altitude alpine meadow in Europe and one of the most beautiful places in the world! Cabins, rifugios and hotels dot the landscape! Alpe di Siusi is one of the best places to watch the sunrise and sunset in Italy! I seriously recommend anyone to add Alpe di Siusi to their Italy trip!
