Pyramid path Steinegg | Collepietra

Steinegg/Collepietra, Karneid/Cornedo all'Isarco, Dolomites Region Eggental
A diverse circular hike to the impressive earth pyramids of Steinegg|Collepietra – sculpted by wind and water over centuries.
from center
Experience a fascinating natural phenomenon on the Pyramid Path in Steinegg|Collepietra: the impressive earth pyramids, which have been formed over centuries by erosion from clayey moraine soil.
The varied circular trail leads you through dense forests, across gentle meadows and even through a gorge, always accompanied by magnificent views of the Schlern|Sciliar and Rosengarten|Catinaccio mountains. Along the way, you can marvel at the bizarre earth pillars from afar and then up close - a testimony to the power of wind and water. Enjoy this unique hike through a landscape full of geological wonders.

Important note: There are no refreshment stops along the entire circular route. However, at the start and end point in Steinegg|Collepietra, you will find several restaurants, cafés, and two shops.
Itinerary

You start at the Steinegg|Collepietra village square and follow path [2B] past Café Christl, turn left at Hotel Oberwirt and continue along path [2B] via Pstosser Bühl to the barn in front of the chapel ‘Zum Weißen Bild’. Turn left here onto the Pyramid Path.
3 wooden pyramids show you the starting point here. You walk downhill across a field and enter a mixed forest. You continue to descend until you reach the Katzenbach gorge. You cross this and then the trail climbs relatively steeply until you reach another field. Continue past the Raffeinerhof farm and along the tarmac road towards the Heiglerhof farm. Before reaching the farm, a path marked [2] branches off to the right. This leads slightly uphill past the Dosserhof farm to the main road. Continue to the Dosser cross and turn right. Here you descend directly to the earth pyramids and the viewing platform. The path [2] continues past the pyramids to the Glirger cross and via the Katzenbach path back to the chapel ‘Zum Weißen Bild’. Staying on path [2], you return to the village of Steinegg|Collepietra.
