Tour on the Puflatsch/Seiser Alm

From Seis am Schlern we reach the starting point Compatsch on the Seiser Alm with the cable car. Close to the mountain station we follow a small gravel path down to the Telemix Puflatsch (gradient approx. 15%). In the middle of wide mountain meadows we enjoy the peace and quiet of the largest alpine pasture in Europe. The Seiser Alm is a true paradise for mountain lovers both in winter and in summer. The barrierfree Telemix Puflatsch takes us up to 2119 m. Close to the top station is the Engelsrast, a wonderful viewpoint with some wooden benches that allow a 360° panoramic view of the Schlern, the Langkofel and the Plattkofel mountains. Over the gentle hills of Puflatsch we follow a wide footpath with gravel surface up to an extensive plateau (gradient approx. 10%). After a rather short flat stretch, the descent to the Arnika hut (2062 m) finally begins. In this section, the path winds over some smaller crests and then shows a marked gradient in some places. From the Arnika hut a small steep footpath leads over a bumpy ascent (wooden gate) to a wooden cross (2077 m). From this hill with benches and tables we enjoy a wonderful view of Kastelruth, as well as Lajen and its surroundings. The return takes place on the same way.
