Hiking

Welschnofen/Nova Levante, Dolomites Region Eggental
Scenic circular hike from Welschnofen to the Elisabeth Monument.
from center

This circular hike starts in Welschnofen | Nova Levante and leads up the "Herrensteig" path to the Elisabeth promenade. The promenade was named after Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sissi), as it was one of her favorite walking routes when she spent her summer vacation at the Grand Hotel Karersee | Carezza in 1897. At the end of the promenade, a small memorial plaque commemorates the Empress. Along the "Herrensteig" path and the promenade itself, there are repeatedly stunning views of the small mountain village of Welschnofen | Nova Levante and the impressive Latemar massif.
