Additional information
Take the Seiser Alm cable car up to the mountain station in Compatsch. To your left, a wide path leads steeply uphill towards the Puflatsch. If you prefer, you can save yourself this effort and take the Telemix Puflatsch. From here, walk on to the Engelsrast (“Angels’ Rest”) viewing platform and enjoy the view of the surrounding peaks together with the angel who is resting there.
The loop route leads on to the Filln Cross and the Witches’ Benches: According to legend, witches used to dance here - and even today you can see the stone benches with their backrests! The path now leads down to the Goller Cross and, with Schlern mountain in sight, back to Compatsch, the starting point of the tour.

Refreshment stop on the hiking trail. Not pram-friendly.

Please check the opening hours of the huts and restaurants: www.seiseralm.it/huts
