A lively year-round Selva gathering place where skiers, hikers, and bikers come together for drinks, music, and the wonderfully social side of life in the Dolomites.
In the heart of Selva di Val Gardena, Saltos is one of those wonderfully uncomplicated mountain bars that works in every season. In winter, it’s a classic après-ski gathering place where ski boots stay on and the afternoon keeps going. Come summer, hikers and mountain bikers replace the ski crowd, turning Saltos into a lively stop after a day exploring the trails of the Dolomites.
Located near the Dantercepies side of Selva and perfectly positioned for those returning from the mountains, Saltos combines the warmth of a traditional alpine bar with live music, DJ sets, dancing, drinks, snacks, and an atmosphere that becomes increasingly social as the day progresses.
This isn’t polished lounge-bar territory, and it doesn’t try to be. Saltos is about the ritual of finishing a great day outside, ordering a drink before returning to the hotel, finding friends, meeting other mountain lovers, and realizing you’re not quite ready for the day to end.
In winter, that means arriving straight from the Sellaronda with your ski boots still buckled. In summer, it might mean walking in after a long hike or rolling up after a day on the bike. Either way, Saltos captures the casual, energetic side of Selva that keeps the village alive long after everyone comes down from the mountain.
