Starting at the head of the Ratschingstal valley in Flading, the wide but steep gravel path no. 12 leads for around 500 metres to the Pfeifer-Huisile Gorge. Here, a 12-metre-long viewing platform offers an impressive view 85 metres down into the gorge. The platform also marks the end of the Pfeifer-Huisile Trail.
The starting point cannot be reached directly by public transport. It is possible to travel as far as the “Larch” stop on bus line 319 (Sterzing/Vipiteno – Ratschings/Racines) and continue on foot to the starting point (approx. 45 min., 130 metres of elevation gain). Further information on timetables and connections is available at www.suedtirolmobil.info/en.
From Sterzing, continue towards the head of the Ratschingstal valley until reaching St. Mary’s Chapel in the hamlet of Flading.
Parking is available near St. Mary’s Chapel in Flading.
