We Park our car in the paid parking lot on the Braies Lake and hike along first on the eastern shore of Braies Lake. Here you can the wild, eingekesselten, admire crystal clear Lake. Idyllic, You can see no plastic pedalo, but only wooden boats. Simply a magnificent lakeside! See for yourself:

At the southern end of the Lake we turn left up, the Steig Dolomites mountain trail Nr. 1 along . This takes us on a gravel road through Mountain Pines up. After the Mountain Pines we meet quite exposed part with view. Although this post about 30 m long and is well protected by a wooden bridge current into the mountainside along and a chain, has the best friend of all fear and is slightly nervous. But which exceeded succeeds. Continues through forest until we again an obstacle, make a rock stage! This is well secured in turn by a chain and not very long. Nevertheless, the best friend of all is more nervous! Unfortunately we do not know, the road is still long and how exposed is still in the course. Also the fatigue in our members is noticeable. Our tour description mentioned nothing of a via ferrata, It says only, the path is long and arduous. That “burdensome” can we sign! After a short break (no fear, This stretch can be described as a difficult via ferrata, unless one is that as the best friend of all and versteigt in rock…) We reach a rocky plateau. We turn right and follow the trail Nr. 1 until the notch Porta Sora al Forn, the highest point of our hike on 2.370 m. Here you can choose, whether you will stay again an hour, the Croda del Becco to climb with its wonderful lake view. The path is very steep, strict and pretty face. The best friend of all do not want! It is for a short rest. So photographic equipment unpacked and off it goes with which “Freeze” the mountain panorama. Now the best friend of all can rest.

The wonderful plateau between Seekofel stretches before us, High Gaisl and Le Tofane. Something deeper you can see the Biella hut.

We decide, the way back along the Stezka Nr. 28 compete, as a nice Italian lady advertised this way. It should contain no exposed places, but with super views. We will not be disappointed. The views of the surrounding mountains is huge! We see out of the surrounding mountain peaks, a clear mountain lake and the Queen of the Alps: not only an Edelweiss line our way! What a pity , The Ibex not run after us, not even show up so you can ! So slowly we remember, We have overestimated us, Return makes us to create. The way is long and longer. First we walk over a crest in West, rise of BlackRock durchzogene meadows from in direction North and get to a first crossroad labeled way N. 3, hiking but continue straight on until we soon encounter a second crossroads. Go right to Malga, straight on can the Steig Nr. 28 walk and bends the great Rosskofel, to then return to the Braies Lake this slightly longer route. We hit the but Way N. 4 a (turn left ), us on our way back leads. This way, He leads us on a dried up Lake, is shorter. We choose it, Although he exposed us above the first post to the Dolomites mountain trail Nr. 1 brings . So once again the best friend of all must climb the wooden bridge. The way back is the same as the way now. In the Braies Lake we make us this time the West Bank, walkable, mostly so we have level completely the Pragser Wildsee. After 6 full hours We arrive at our starting point. It's done!
