Across the beautiful Latemar meadows, you reach the Latemar Cinema, which, as the name suggests, offers magnificent panoramic views. The subsequent exhausting ascent to the Pulpito peak is rewarded by a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains like the Pala Group, Marmolada, Sella, Sassolungo, Catinaccio and Ötztal Alps.
