Hikers can stop here for refreshments and then continue downhill via the Ziss Saddle – not far from there, you can admire the stunning "huckete Stoan," a free-standing erratic boulder made of porphyry the size of a house – until you come to Altrei.

The main route leads along an average height of 2.000m - so you have to expect high - alpine conditions. With the exception of the last sections, which can be bypassed on an easier path, experienced hikers will have no difficulties.

    Dolomites World Heritage Geotrail II – Stage 6: from the Puez Hut to Armentarola
    Badia, Dolomites Region Alta Badia

    The impressively steep and rocky tooth of the Sassongher rises directly before us, while far to the south we see the imposing and majestic northwest wall of the Civetta. Merely crossing the plateau on which the Puez Hut is located represents a unique experience for mountaineers without vast geological knowledge, with bizarre rock formations that only a whim of nature could create. The Pralongiá plateau offers a breathtaking view of the largest glacier in the Dolomites, the north face of the Marmolada.

    Truden/Trodena, The South Tyrolean Wine Road

    This pleasant segment leads from idyllic village of Oberradein all the way to Truden – from 1,500 meters to 1,100 meters above sea-level. At the start, you proceed downhill by way of Unterradein until you come to the famed "Ice Holes" of Kaltenbrunn; because of the cool air that streams out of the openings in the ground, it's pleasant here even in the summer. Kaltenbrunn offers refreshment options and connection to public transportation. From here, the route goes slightly uphill and then levels off as you continue to Truden.

    Altrei/Anterivo, The South Tyrolean Wine Road

    This challenging segment leads from the alpine village of Altrei to the famed Pinot Noir village of Montan – from 1,200 meters down to 500 meters above sea-level. From Altrei, the route continues uphill via the Ziss Saddle all the way to the Horn-Alm (managed) with a wonderful view, at an altitude of more than 1,700 meters above sea-level – the highest point of this segment. From here, the trail is almost totally downhill. The next segment will take you to the Hackelboden forest hut (not managed!) and on to the hamlet of Gsteig (option for food/drink and overnight lodgings). You will then pass by the roaring Glen Waterfall via the former Fleims Valley railroad and on to Montan.

    Helpful hint for this route: Take the little side-trip from Gsteig to the impressive "Kanzel" looming high above the Unterland district. You'll be rewarded with a fantastic view!

    Aldein/Aldino, The South Tyrolean Wine Road

    This challenging hike begins from the Jochgrimm. You then have to master approx. 500 meters of altitude-differential until you come to the Schwarzhorn (2,439 meters above sea-level). The trail then leads you around and down the other side of the Schwarzhorn until you come to the Kugeljoch; from this pass, you have a magnificent panoramic view of the Fleims Valley. You can now proceed down the "Leitensteig" staircase until you reach the Kaltenbrunn "Ice Holes," where it's pleasantly cool even in the summertime. From Kaltenbrunn (where hikers will find a number of refreshment options and also access to public transportation), there is still a short segment slightly uphill to Truden. This is a uniquely beautiful hike and is – in spite of the level of difficulty – an absolute "must" for ambitious hikers.

    Trail of the legends
    Jenesien/San Genesio Atesino, Bolzano/Bozen and environs

    Along the way there are 12 stations, which were designed by the pupils of the local primary school. There are lots of small master pieces which were smoothly integrated into the landscape of the Salten high plateau. Each station tells you about a local fairy tale from the area of San Genesio. The stories and fairy tales about witches and similar legendary creatures have always excited the fantasy of children and adults alike. Examples of the many exciting stories are the explanation why the Castle Greifenstein is always called ”Sauerschloss“, the fairy tale of the sunken city, the endless ball of threads, the butter witch of Afing, how the Castle of Greifenstein got its name, the captured mermaid, and many more.

    When you take this extra segment, you will begin from Gfrill, which is located at approx. 1,300 meters above sea-level, and continue to Buchholz at 560 meters above sea-level.

The trail then goes downhill until you come to the brook where the Truden Faultline is especially noticeable. This boundary is distinctly visible not only on the basis of the different geological strata (dolomites and porphyry), but also due to the abrupt change in vegetation. You can then continue to the small village of Buchholz.

    Tru di pra certified path
    La Val, Dolomites Region Alta Badia

    This trail has been certified by 'Europäisches Wandergütesiegel' (European Certification for hiking trails).

    Once you have left the village centre, you will understand why La Val is called the village of Alpine meadows: green, well-kept meadows will constantly surround you during this hike. The man-made landscape between 1300 and 2000 metres above sea level developed through the hard work of our farming ancestors, which today is facilitated by the use of agricultural machinery. 

    As the altitude increases, so does the consistency of the meadows: from meagre meadows to the larch meadows of Armentara. Along the route you will find wonderful viewpoints, a sulphurous water spring at Al Bagn and several refreshment points where you can refresh yourself with some of the delicious Ladin specialities that can satisfy every palate: try the typical bales (dumplings) or snack on a well-earned slice of strudel.

    Every year, the non-competitive half-marathon 'Tru di pra' takes place on this route.

    Aldein/Aldino, Bolzano/Bozen and environs

    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.

    Hiking & "törggelen": This ancient South Tyrolean custom alone is worth a trip. From October to the beginning of the Advent season, you meet the "törggelen" in the Renon inns and taverns with young wine, sweet cider and hearty delicacies. When the chestnuts are roasted over the "Keschtnfeuer", you feel as if you have travelled back in time. One-time quaint!

    From the small village of Buchholz, you will then continue on to Gfrill. Right after Buchholz, the Truden Faultline becomes especially noticeable. This boundary is visible not only on the basis of the different geological strata (dolomites and porphyry), but also due to the change in vegetation.

You continue along the old cableway trail, steadily uphill, until arriving in Gfrill, an alpine village surrounded by plenty of natural beauty.

    Altrei/Anterivo, The South Tyrolean Wine Road

    This challenging segment leads from the famed Pinot Noir village of Montan all the way to Altrei. This alpine village is situated at an elevation of almost 1,200 meters above sea-level. From Montan, the route leads via the old railroad route of the former Fleims Valley railroad, on past the Glen Waterfall, up to the hamlet of Gsteig (option for food/drink and overnight lodgings). Then, from the Kalkofen parking lot, you will take the steep uphill route to the Hackelboden forest hut (not managed!) and on to the Horn-Alm (which is managed), the highest point of this segment. After a short pause (option for food/drink and overnight lodgings), you continue downhill along an easy path via the Ziss Saddle. You might want to stop at the Kneipp hydro-therapeutic station on your way to Altrei.

    Helpful hint for this route: Take the little side-trip from Gsteig to the impressive "Kanzel" looming high above the Unterland district. You'll be rewarded with a fantastic view!
