Mountain Rescue & Emergency Services Base

Selva di Val Gardena hosts a crucial base for mountain rescue (Soccorso Alpino) and other emergency services, ensuring safety for all mountain activities. Equipped with highly trained personnel, specialized vehicles, and rescue helicopters, they provide rapid response to accidents or emergencies on slopes, hiking trails, and climbing routes. While visitors hope not to need these services, their presence provides immense reassurance for anyone venturing into the Dolomites. Information on emergency numbers (112 or 118) is readily available throughout the resort. This service operates year-round, adapting to seasonal risks.
