Beautiful high-altitude trail at the Rosengarten, which leads from the Kölner Hütte to the Paolina Hütte and the Christomannos Monument.

This high-altitude trail at the Rosengarten runs without significant altitude differences over one of the most panoramic high-altitude trails in South Tyrol. From the Kölner Hütte, the rocky, partly narrow Hirzelsteig leads to the Paolina Hütte and then to the Christomannos Monument. This 2.7 m high bronze eagle commemorates the merits of the Austrian tourism pioneer Theodor Christomannos, who significantly contributed to the development of tourism.
