Family-friendly hike at the Rosengarten to the Christomannos Monument with a bronze eagle and impressive views of the Fassa Valley, Eggental, and the Latemar group.
Easy hike for the whole family on picturesque mountain paths at the foot of the Rosengarten. The highlight of the entire route is the visit to the Christomannos Monument: an impressive bronze eagle erected in honor of Theodor Christomannos - a pioneer of tourism in the Dolomites. From the monument, a breathtaking view opens over the Fassa Valley and the Eggental up to the majestic Latemar group.
