Sexten (Italian: Sesto) is a mountain village in the Alta Pusteria Valley, known as the gateway to the Three Peaks and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites.

The village lies at an altitude of approximately 1,300 meters and is famous for the Sexten sundial, a striking mountain formation where the position of the sun can be read from the peaks. Furthermore, this village is a popular destination for mountaineers, hikers, and climbers in the summer, as well as for skiers and winter sports enthusiasts in the Three Peaks Dolomites area in the winter. In addition to its unique natural surroundings, the village boasts vibrant traditions, Ladin-Tyrolean culture, and warm hospitality.
