Brunico città/Bruneck Stadt, Bruneck/Brunico, Dolomites Region Kronplatz/Plan de Corones
Scenic hike from Kronplatz via Stefansdorf to Reischach, featuring stunning views and varied meadow and forest trails.
from center
This varied hike leads from the summit of Kronplatz down to Stefansdorf and further on to Reischach. Starting at 2,275 metres above sea level, the route offers magnificent mountain panoramas before continuing through meadows and forests along trails no. 8, 4 and 7. Although technically easy, the hike requires good stamina due to its length and rewards hikers with beautiful scenery and peaceful natural surroundings.
Itinerary

From Riscone-Reischach, take the cable car to the top of Mount Kronplatz and start your hike on the peak: Head west on a narrow, steep path (no. 8) through the meadows until you get to a forest on a ridge. Follow the even trail along the ridge and continue downhill all the way to a clearing in the woods from which you can see the Haidenberg mountain inn. From there, take the ample forest road back down into the valley. Just before reaching the first farms of Santo Stefano-Stefansdorf, follow the signs to Riscone-Reischach past the Weliserhof farmstead and a number of meadows and fields. The trail will take you back to the valley station in Riscone-Reischach.
