The easy hike from the Hotel Moseralm at the foot of the Catinaccio massif leads to the picturesque Frinwiesen meadows with an impressive 360-degree mountain backdrop.
This easy hike to the Frin meadows offers an unforgettable experience in the midst of the breathtaking Dolomite landscape - a real highlight for nature lovers and connoisseurs.

The tour starts at the Hotel Moseralm. A short, gentle ascent on a forest path leads you to the extensive Frin meadows, which will delight you with their magnificent views of the Latemar Massif, Rosengarten Massif and the Schlern Massif. Depending on the season, the meadows present themselves in a variety of colours: in spring in full bloom, in summer in lush green or in autumn in a riot of colour. The surrounding area invites you to linger and offers numerous opportunities to enjoy the impressive mountain scenery in peace and quiet.

The trail continues at a leisurely pace towards the Nigerstraße | Via Nigra. On the way, you will pass the cosy Ochsenhütte hut, which invites hikers to take a well-earned rest with regional specialities. The way back is via an idyllic forest path that gently leads you back to the Hotel Moseralm.
