This challenging yet great tour leads along the sunny slopes of the mountain Rosskopf ridge at an altitude from 1900 to 2300 meters above the Ridnauntal valley, with descent into the valley. Only recommended at good weather conditions. From the mountain station of the Rosskopf cable car (1850m) follow a wide path no. 23 southwestwards slightly uphill, around the south facing rock formation, above the mountain pasture Kuhalm (1897m; open) along to the mountain pasture Ochsenalm (1907m; open). The trail, now no. 23, leads below the mountain Telfer Weißen along the mountain cauldron of the pasture Seeberalm next to the lake Seebersee (2110m; open). Along below the southern slopes of the mountain Wetterspitze you reach the pasture Prischeralm (2160m; open). The return runs along the path no. 27 partly steeply downhill to the hamlet of Sennen in Maiern. From there you can go back by the public bus to Sterzing. Mountaineering experience and good physical condition essential.
The first metres of altitude to the famous Rifugio Bolzano on the Sciliar mountain and to the Tierser Alpl refuge can be shortened using the lift.
The Spitzbühl is especially known to all those who fly with the paraglider or are a fan of the model flight.

A hidden natural spectacle reveals itself to hikers at the head of the valley called Ridnauntal: the waterfalls of the Burkhard Gorge, which can be reached by following a panoramic trail.
Starting from the mining museum in Maiern, a marked hiking track leads through shady coniferous forests alongside the Fernerbach, a babbling glacial stream. The romantic, approximately one metre wide hiking trail winds through meadows and forests, past lush mossy expanses.
The wild glacial stream tumbles over a steep precipice that is surrounded by trees and bushes. Wooden bridges lead to panoramic observation decks with breathtaking views of the bizarre Ridnaun mountains and the secretive heart of the vast gorge, enabling hikers to experience the amazing contact with the power of nature up close.
“Feel nature” – is literally the aim of the ca. 400m long barefoot path at Ratschings/Racines. Barefoot through nature, feeling fully aware different materials, like grass, sand, pebbles, marble of Ratschings, wood in all types and the natural forest soil and its quality. Try out the difference between rough and pleasant materials, the equilibration by balancing and enjoy a natural foot reflexology at the Kneipp-route at the river Ratschingerbach with hot stones and cold water. Walk barefoot is a sensual pleasure for old and young and provides significant health benefits, stimulates the organism and our immune system.

From there the path no. 12 leads past the lake Butsee (2362m) through mountain meadows rising up to the rocky and exposed summit area of the mountain Hohe Kreuzspitze.
