This winter hike takes you through snowy meadows and forests to the Häusler Sam hut, idyllically located in a clearing beneath the Latemar.
This relaxing winter hike leads through idyllic snow-covered forests and meadows to the rustic Häusler Sam hut, which is modestly situated in a clearing surrounded by forest. It is well worth a visit to sample the delicious specialities of South Tyrolean cuisine (during the winter season only open on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays).
