Hiking

Snowshoe: Schussriedl

St. Veit/S. Vito - Sexten/Sesto, Sexten/Sesto, Dolomites Region 3 Zinnen
from center
The snowshoe hike leads from the Kreuzberg Pass to the ‘Schuss’ viewpoint and offers beautiful views along the way as well as a relaxed but still attentive route.
- Beautiful panoramic view over Sesto to Comelico.
- Low technical difficulty – however, caution is always advised due to possible avalanche danger and winter conditions.
- The highlight of the tour is the ‘Schuss’ / ‘Cima dei Colesei’ viewpoint

ATTENTION: Snowshoe hikes and ski tours should only be undertaken by experienced and well-trained mountaineers. Always consider the avalanche risk – carrying complete avalanche safety equipment (avalanche transceiver, probe, and shovel) is mandatory. Check the avalanche report and weather conditions before every tour. Those without sufficient experience should only join such tours in the company of a certified mountain guide.
Itinerary
The snow shoe hike starts at the Kreuzberg pass. From there it goes up to the Bärensee lake and on to the Forcella Pian d. Biscia. The so-called vantage point "Schuss" in German, or "Cima dei Colesei" in Italian, not only offers a great view of Sexten, but also of the regional border to Veneto and is particularly popular because of its low difficulty. The route is the same for the way there as well as for the way back.
