Family-friendly circular hike through shady forests with occasional views of the Dolomites and opportunities to stop at local inns.

The circular hike on the Steinegger Höhenweg is ideal for families and hikers looking for a varied walk. On well-marked trails marked with a yellow shoe, the route mainly leads you through light forests past individual viewpoints with impressive views of the surrounding mountain panorama, such as the Schlern, the Rosengarten, and also the Latemar.
During the summer months, you can easily escape the heat in the forests on this circular route.
Along the way, benches with tables invite you to rest and have a picnic. There is also a place to stop for refreshments on the hike: the Jausenstation Oberölgart. Another option for a stop is the Gasthof Untereggerhof. You reach this by a short detour from Tschigghof to the observatory, and it is not directly on the route.
Parts of the route are suitable for strollers and run along wide forest roads. For more information, contact the tourist offices in the Eggental.
