People have always looked on the Witches’ Benches on the Puflatsch as being a magical spot. It is here that the Schlern witches are said to have gathered together before flying over the Schlern. The witches are no longer here, but their benches are as wonderful as ever: The rocky porphyry boulders in the form of armchairs are a fabulous spot to stop off for a rest. And for an extra bonus: The 360° view over the Schlern and the Seiser Alm, Tiosels, the Val Gardena/Gröden Valley, Ritten and the Ortles in the distance.

A breathtaking high-altitude trail leads around the imposing Langkofel group with the Langkofel peak and the Plattkofel. Given the length of this route a good level of fitness is required, but the route around the Plattkofel and the Langkofel is not particularly steep. Your efforts will be amply rewarded with the beautiful views of the Langkofel group and the breathtaking view of the neighbouring valleys of Val Gardena and Val di Fassa.

The ridge of the Schneid  (eng: “edge”) is an authentic walk on the edge in every sense of the word, forming as it does the border between South Tyrol and Trentino. But have no fear: From a technical point of view, this hike is not particularly difficult. However, given its length, it does call for a bit of stamina. The breathtaking views over the South Tyrol and Trentino Dolomites will reward you for your efforts. 

Winter hike with sledding possibility

From the parking place at the Biathlon Center > pass the Tiroler Hut > if conditions permit go on the foot path on the frozen lake > on the groomed trail up to the Staller Saddle.

The GEOTour starts at the GEOMuseum Radein/Redagno which shows the Bletterbach canyon’s special geological features. Our tour leads through a forest to the so called “Zirmersteig” (trail). Then we go down the canyon and follow the river upwards to the head of the valley (“Gorz”). From here we have to walk back to the “Gorzsteig”. This trail leads to the Visitor Centre GEOPARC Bletterbach in Aldino. From here we have two possibilities to return to Redagno/Radein: to walk back or to take the bus.

Beautiful, less strenuous hike from Padola to the Kreuzberg Pass with wonderful views of the mountain landscape of the Sextnen Dolomites.

Peaceful excursion in the middle of the woods passing near a trout farm. Fantastic view over the mountains Monte Lungo/Lungkofl, Picco di Vallandro/Dürrenstein and Croda Rossa/Hohe Gaisl. Walking time: 1,5 hours Sign-post: No. 37

Wonderful hike with views of the Sesto Dolomites and the whole village. In good weather, the view continues over many villages and mountains

The first stage of the Geotrail climbs up from the Bletterbach gorge to the summit of the Weisshorn. We pass through stunning scenery that reveals various layers of rock with the oldest at the bottom, the most recent at the very top. Like a book, these layers tell a story – a story that has lasted 40 million years, with the transformation of the Dolomites of the time from a landmass into a sea.

From the parking area Lago di Braies/Pragser Wildsee you go along the west coast Lago di Braies/Pragser Wildsee, arrived on the back shore a broad gravel way with the (No. 19) lead you to the Malga Foresta/Grünwaldalm. The walking time is 1 hour.

Leisurely walk boasting breathtaking views of the Langkofel/Sassolungo and Plattkofel/Sassopiatto, passing countless mountain huts offering food and refreshments and a very unusual bench.

This hiking tour can be found in the family hiking booklet “Out and About with Nix the Witch”.

The tour starts from the Auerleger alp following the way nr. 2 to Jochgrimm. Arriving on the street we turn right and follow the way nr. 1 to the Neuhütt alp.

After 2km we reach the calcium stove, which was built in the 19th century with the stones of the Weißhorn mountain. The calcium was used to built and paint houses. The people filled the pit with the stones and firewood coverd with clay. They set it on fire, which burned for seven hours. When the fire stopped burning they took the stones out to be further processed in the village.

To return to the Auerleger alp we follow the same way back.

Legends and stories about the Sextner Tal valley and the Alta Pusteria/Hochpustertal valley have been told and passed on here for years. Now these many fairytales and stories have been used to create a Fable Trail (Fabelweg) in Sesto. Figures depicting characters from all kinds of legends have been set up along the route, giving visitors an insight into a different world.

Starting from Compatsch on the Seiser Alm (1835 m), passing the new wooden Franziskus church, we follow the small asphalt road that leads to Saltria across the alpine pasture. The traffic-calmed road across the alpine pasture area is used by the typical horse-drawn carriages and horse-drawn sleighs both in summer and in winter. Shortly after the Restaurant Panoramalift we use the pedestrian underpass and after a slight ascent we reach the natural monument Tschonstoan, a huge rocky outcrop, which is located directly at the roadside. The hike continues in slight ups and downs to the wide meadow of the Großes Moos (1860 m). Near a crossroads, we can decide here whether to continue in the direction of Saltria to the nearby Restaurant Ritsch Schwaige or turn left in the direction of Piz. If you continue walking, after a short descent (9%) you leave the asphalt road and take the unpaved road to the Sanon hut on the right. The road leads through beautiful alpine meadows and past several huts dominated by the rocky splendour of the Langkofel and Plattkofel mountains. At a gradient, a path branches off to the left which leads across the meadows down to the alpine pasture: At this point the path becomes much narrower, bumpier and in some places quite steep. Over some wooden footbridges we finally reach the nearby Sanon hut (1848 m). The hut is open all year round and offers a welcome stop for refreshments. The return to Compatsch follows the same route.

From Antholz Niedertal (Bad Salomonsbrunn) > Walderhöfe > mark n. 31b or the forest road to the Hofstattalm (rest station) > Langeggalm (not open) > the path continues to the Durakopf peek.

A must for all Dolomite fans: This multi-day hut tour leads to the most beautiful spots of the holiday region of the Seiser Alm, and boasts fairytale-like views over the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites. The first stage leads to the Schlern which, with its distinctive shape, is the emblem of South Tyrol. On the following day the tour leads on to the Refuge Tierser Alpl, the private mountain hut with the distinctive red roof and onwards to the Plattkofelhütte hut, at the foot of the Plattkofel.

This winter hike starts in Saltria and leads along the hiking trail towards Piz. From there the trail runs through the snow-covered landscape with a wonderful panoramic view of the Dolomites.

The GEOTour Bletterbach – End of the Valley starts at the Visitor Centre GEOPARC Bletterbach in Aldino. On our way down the canyon we pass two fascinating viewpoints with an outlook over the lower part of the Bletterbach canyon. We go up the valley, passing by the so called “Floscherbründl” (fountain), until we reach the head of the valley called “Gorz”. At the Corno Bianco le canyon opens up like an amphitheatre and gives a view of the Permian–Triassic extinction event which happened 250 million years ago.

With the extraordinary profile of the Schlern mountain, the Seiser Alm is one of the most fascinating landscapes in the Dolomites and one of the most famous hiking and winter sports areas in Europe. Numerous legends and sagas about witches and other creatures that are said to have afflicted this area give the largest high alpine pasture in Europe a magical touch.

Impressive hike via Tirler and Zallinger with its idyllic little church and then steeply uphill to the Plattkofel hut. From there you have breathtaking views of the mountain world including the imposing 3,343 m high "Marmolata".

Scenically beautiful Alpine ridgeway with views of the main peaks of the Sexten Dolomites.
No car is necessary for this long, but not difficult, circular hike due to the dense network of trails, but you will need a good hiking map!
