Scenically stunning – the second stage passes through the Tiers Valley, leading up to the Niger Pass | Passo Nigra with breathtaking views of the Rosengarten and Latemar massifs.

On this stage, you will immerse yourself deeply in the legendary mountain landscape of the Dolomites. The trail leads you through the picturesque Tiers Valley and repeatedly offers breathtaking views of the majestic Rosengarten | Catinaccio massif, renowned for the so-called "Enrosadira" – the Alpenglow. Particularly impressive is the transition to the Niger Pass | Passo Nigra, from where the view opens up to the Latemar massif and the surrounding alpine meadows.
