Quite a challenging hike to the Haunoldköpfl panoramic mountain south of San Candido/Innichen. The hiking trail becomes quite steep in some places towards the end. However, when you reach the summit you have a breathtaking view of San Candido that makes all your efforts worthwhile. There is also a section during the climb up where you can catch a glimpse of all three of the Three Peaks.
It is best to park your car at the valley station of the Haunold chairlift or travel there by bus. From there you go up to the Erschbaum pizzeria and to the right along forest road no. 28 until trail no. 6 forks off to the left a little way further up. This takes you to the Riese Haunold Hütte mountain hut. Just opposite the mountain station of the chairlift, the forest road continues until it meets trail no. 7, which you follow past the Gemeindekaser hut (not staffed) to the top of the Haunoldköpfl.
Getting to the starting point of the tour by public transport is possible (bus number 446 to the bus stop Innichen / Haunold or train 400 to Innichen / San Candido).
Through the Alta Pusteria/Hochpustertal Valley to Innichen by bus, train or car. From there follow the signs to Monte Baranci/Haunold. Park the car at the parking of the chairlift.
