Entry segment | Buchholz – Gfril

Salurn/Salorno, Salorno/Salurn, Alto Adige Wine Road
From Buchholz to Gfrill: A steady climb along the Trudner Fault and the old cableway trail to the peaceful mountain village of Gfrill.
from center

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. The trail is steadily uphill until you come to the ruins of the walls of an old cableway. You continue along the old cableway trail, steadily uphill, until arriving in Gfrill, an alpine village surrounded by plenty of natural beauty.

Itinerary
The access trail starts in Buchholz and climbs steadily towards Gfrill. Shortly after leaving the village, the Trudner Fault becomes clearly visible, marking the transition between dolomite and porphyry as well as a striking change in vegetation. The route follows the old cableway trail past the remains of a former cableway before reaching the mountain village of Gfrill.
