The chapel is located in the village itself; the other four cultural destinations are in the area around Sella.

Natural Riding for Adults and Children

The Maneggio Equitazione Serenity riding facility offers another option for planning your trip: adults and children can take Natural Riding lessons there. If you are travelling with different age groups, this explicit focus on adults and children provides a specific point of reference for planning your time together. This adds the specific theme of Natural Riding to the cultural and historic routes. Natural Riding remains the name of the lessons on offer.

Historic Route Connections

The historic route reached Case Sella shortly before the Chiesa della Scoffera. An old road connected the hamlets of Sella and Moránego in Davagna with the villages of Val Noci. This road passed by the Passo del Fuoco. In addition, a historic section of road connected the village with the Passo della Scoffera at an elevation of 674 m. This elevation refers to the Passo della Scoffera and not to Sella itself.

Landscape and Cycling Route

Mount Lavagnola is located in the surrounding area of Sella. The ANELLO SCOFFERA - SUPER G route is also relevant for cycling travellers: it passes through Sella between Villamezzana and Moranego. For planning a cycling trip, Sella is the specific geographical reference point for the section between Villamezzana and Moranego.
