Südtirol Guide App
South Tyrol´s digital travel guide
This beautiful itinerary runs along the ridge between Eggental and the Tierser Valley. It follows a forest road which is closed to traffic and begins near the Niger mountain hut (1690 m a.s.l.). The whole route is well sign-posted and very varied, with flat terrain interspersed with up and downhill sections, following the undulating shape of the slope. The path is a dirt road and every 20/30 metres there are narrow drainage channels which do not, however, cause any problems. Almost all the route is in the woods but, after the Vaia storm in October 2018 which brought down a huge number of trees, a lot of new and beautiful views of the imposing Rosengarten cliff and Latemar have since opened up. There are a number of detours along the way, with directions to Jocherhof farm always well-signposted at the forks.

Wear layers and comfortable boots. It is important to have sunscreen with you at all times, a change of clothes should it rain and a small first aid kit.
