Description Turn-by-turn directions How to get there

A varied route for young and old through the fascinating rocky world at Latemar.

At the foot of the majestic Latemar massif awaits a special natural adventure: the Labyrinth Trail. As the name suggests, this extraordinary path leads through a fascinating maze of house-high boulders, narrow rock tunnels, and steps carved into the stone (sometimes requiring the use of hands). The impressive rock formations are the result of a huge rockslide that separated from Latemar long ago - and today provide the backdrop for an unforgettable hiking experience.
