This hiking trip shows the scenic variety of South Tyrol from its most beautiful side – on mostly easy to moderate trails that (almost) everyone can manage. Your base is the family-run Hotel Saxl in Freienfeld near Sterzing. From here you hike the highlights of the region with a qualified hiking guide.

The tours range from the Seiser Alm – Europe’s highest alpine meadow with panoramic views of the Dolomites – via the spectacular Gilfenklamm marble gorge with its suspension bridges and walkways to the Rosskopf lookout mountain. A highlight is the hike to the world-famous Three Peaks (Drei Zinnen), the UNESCO World Heritage of the Dolomites, with views of the dramatic north faces from the Paternsattel.

In between you enjoy an alpine picnic, visit a traditional wood-carving workshop in St. Ulrich and the 400-year-old Glangnerhof farm with its deer park. Travel is by modern comfort coach from Saxony/Ore Mountains over the Brenner Pass, with free home pick-up.
