Starting from the idyllic sanctuary of Maria Weißenstein, this leisurely snowshoe hike takes you into the pristine winter landscape of the South Tyrolean Dolomites. The route initially leads through quiet, snow-covered high forests, whose mighty spruces and larches are cloaked in a white mantle. As you take deep breaths of the clear mountain air, all you can hear is the gentle crunching of snowshoes underfoot.
The hike starts from the church plaza in Weissenstein and continues on Trail [15] to the Pichlwiese and the Köser Valley. Follow trail [2a] to the Neuhütt hut, then trail [2] to the Petersberger Leger hut as far as you reach Maria Weissenstein.
