The municipality of Sesto stretches from the entrance of the valley at San Candido up to Passo Croce and does not only comprise the main village S. Vito/Sesto and Moso, but also several mountain hamlets. The highest point of the municipality is the Cima Tre Scarperi with 3,152 m asl, even if much more famous are the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, attraction for visitors from all over the world.

Sesto is located in the Three Peaks Nature Park, where also the famous “Sundial of Sesto”, a series of mountains that are allocated like a sundial, is located. In winter the 3 Zinnen Dolomites ski carousel in the Sesto Dolomites casts a spell over its visitors, while the meadows at the Croda Rossa, the romantic Val Fiscalina and the Tre Cime di Lavaredo attract people mainly in summertime. Particularly famous and popular is the tour round the Tre Cime di Lavaredo in the World Heritage site of the Dolomites. There is also a special attraction for families: at the Croda Rossa, there is a bunch of reindeers, in winter they often even make a walk on the slopes.

Mountain bikers might be familiar with Sesto due to the Stoneman Trail, which was created by Roland Stauder. A real challenge, even for the toughest mountain bikers.
