Wonderful hike through the Latemar forest with breathtaking views of the Rosengarten and Latemar.
This hike leads along the foot of the Latemar through the famous Latemar forest, known for its rich variety of valuable coniferous trees. Particularly sought-after is the so-called "tonewood," which, thanks to its special acoustic properties, is used in the construction of musical instruments. The Mitterleger | Radura di Mezzo forest glade is a perfect spot to take a relaxing break, while the Eggental | Val d'Ega mountain cinema on the Latemar meadows offers a stunning panoramic view of the Rosengarten | Catinaccio and the Rotwand | Roda di Vael peak.
