A perfect choice for nature lovers, families and all who seek beauty and serenity.
Itinerary

The hike starts at the upper parking area in Obereggen (1,550 m). Follow trail [9] gently downhill toward the Bewallerhof, then continue along the scenic Tempelweg [8] through peaceful forest and open meadows with panoramic Dolomite views.
