Description Turn-by-turn directions How to get there

Scenic circular hike from Welschnofen to the Elisabeth Memorial.

This circular hike starts in Welschnofen and leads over the "Herrensteig" up to the Elisabeth Promenade. The promenade was named because it was one of the favorite walking paths of Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sissi), who spent her summer vacation in 1897 at the Grand Hotel Karersee. At the end of the promenade, a small commemorative plaque reminds of the Empress. Along the Herrensteig as well as on the Elisabeth Promenade itself, there are always wonderful views of the small mountain village Welschnofen and the imposing Latemar.
