Description Turn-by-turn directions How to get there Equipment

On this beautiful tour, you will snowshoe through dense forests to the "Buselineck-Monte Nigra," a small plateau with a great view of the Dolomite mountains.

This varied snowshoe hike begins at Frommer Alm hut and leads through snowy forest landscapes and over gentle hills to the so-called "Buselineck-Monte Nigra." This is a wooded hill in Welschnofen | Nova Levante that offers a fantastic panorama of the Rosengarten | Catinaccio. Along the way, you pass the Schiller Hof hut and then reach the historic wolf pit and the small Lengeria Chapel before descending to Welschnofen | Nova Levante. Throughout the hike, you are continually greeted with impressive views of the surrounding mountain ranges and the expansive valley.
