    Premium Panorama Tour on the Rittner Horn Mountain
    Ritten/Renon, Bolzano/Bozen and environs

    Italy’s first premium winter trail is located on the Rittner Horn mountain. Along the trail, especially during the descent from the Rittner Horn peak to the Unterhorn inn, you can enjoy panoramic views of the fascinating Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

    Route: the winter hike begins at the mountain station of the Bergbahn Rittner Horn cable car on the Schwarzseespitze peak. Pass by the Runder Tisch viewpoint and the “Dolomitoskop” on the panoramic trail no. 19 to the Unterhorn inn. Bear left at the Feltuner Hütte mountain hut and continue following the markers up to the Rittner Horn, the highest point. Head via the Alpine pastures down to the Unterhornhaus inn and to the Schwarzenseespitze.

    An alternative route for families with children: take only the smaller circular route along the panoramic trail. Walking time: approx 1 hour.

    Tip: The easy way to get from Bolzano/Bozen to Soprabolzano/Oberbozen is on the Rittner Seilbahn cable car. Continue on the narrow-gauge railway to Collalbo/Klobenstein. Finally take bus 166 to the valley station of the Bergbahn Rittner Horn cable car.

    Winter Hike: from Moso/Moos to the Nemes Alp
    Sexten/Sesto, Dolomites Region 3 Zinnen

    "A wonderful, easy winter hike with a lovely mountain hut to stop at for refreshments.
    Route: The trail goes uphill from Moso towards the Berghotel. If you turn right at the first fork you come to the Froneben mountain inn (1,540 m). Now you walk on trail no. 139 across the Obere Oltl upland moor to trail no. 13, a forest road. This leads through dense pine forests to the gorge carved out by the Sextner Bach stream. At a fork in the trail near a tall cross, you continue straight on to a lovely high plateau called ""Saumahd"". From here it takes about 30 minutes to reach the Nemes Alm or the Sextner Alm Alpine farms (1,877 m; refreshments available). Wide areas of Alpine pasture extend in all directions. There is also a wonderful view of the Sexten Dolomites and the Cadore mountain range. From the Nemes Alm Alpine farm it takes about 45 minutes to reach the Coltrondo Alm Alpine farm.
    Return: From the Nemes Alm or the Coltrondo Alm farm, head down to the Kreuzberg Pass and return to Moso either on foot (1.5 hours) or by bus.
    Tips and special remarks: No car is required for this easy hike; you should take a hiking map. You can also do the tour in the opposite direction, travelling to the Kreuzberg Pass by bus and so saving a climb of about 250 metres. "

    Farm hike between Chienes/Kiens and San Sigismondo/St. Sigmund
    Kiens/Chienes, Dolomites Region Kronplatz/Plan de Corones

    Rural tradition and stunning landscapes.

    From Gisser Eck in San Sigismondo/St. Sigmund, this hike runs along a sun-spoilt hillside dotted with fascinating glimpses of farm life in the Pusteria/Pustertal valley. On a three-hour hike, this circular trail sets off from the valley bottom and leads through granite-ridden slopes to low mountain plateaus with spectacular views of dense pine forests firmly grappled into the hillside with their widely ramified, deep-reaching roots. Scattered across the glacier-shaped landscapes, quartz phyllite rocks and boulders stick out alongside a number of granite glacial erratics. Many lookout points offer inviting spots for a long break admiring the panoramic views.
    Chosen to describe the tradition each farmhouse was known for, the names of the many widely dispersed farmsteads tell an interesting tale: Decker-Hof is derived from Decke, the German word for blanket, while Perchner-Hof refers to a birch grove, Friesenbühel alludes to a frosty hill, Gatscher Hof describes a badly-cut forest clearance, Hitthaler-Hof is reminiscent of a valley of inns and mountain huts (Hüttental) and Neller-Hof is a shortened reference to the name Cornelius.
    From Chienes/Kiens, the trail continues back to San Sigismondo/St. Sigmund through these quaint rural landscapes. There are a number of inns to take a well-deserved break: Hotel Gassenwirt, Gasthof Pizzeria Petra and Bonfanti Design Hotel.
