One of the sun drenched places in South Tyrol is certainly Rittner Horn . Aligned against Süden enjoy the small but fine Ski resort the favor of the wärmespendeten celestial body. Today is predicted a crystal clear unclouded day, tomorrow seems loud Weather forecast South Tyrol the weather conditions turn, What does it mean for both of us: it on Sunday-Schneeschuhwanderung must be brought forward a day.

We walk with our Snowshoes passing on Lärchenhof (1548 m), about 100 m off the slopes,through the coniferous forest, along a cross-country again branched Snow route Rittner Horn contrary to. It takes two long until we ahead Ski touring see , the further from the Ski slope Remove.
Go rather not too far away from the ski slope, otherwise we end up in the Isarco Valley below, as our motto. As constantly groomed snow routes offer, We adhere left and follow the Snow shoe trails in 50 m distance to the ski slope.
The sun shines strong, about according to temperature display of the GPS device 10 ° above zero. This makes the Schnee to create. It is soft, time and again we break a despite snow shoes. Which Snow hiking will be a no brainer.
After approximately three-fourths hour through the forest we arrive at the edge of the ski slope and decide to follow her. Despite Saturday not too many are Skiers on the road and the ski slope is relatively wide, It is no problem at Ski-slope edge along to wandern. Here the snow is harder and therefore easier to commit.
I'm now pretty bad mood and feel very fit. The backpack presses, the steps are becoming increasingly difficult. No idea whether it the load on your back, very warm weather or just my mental or physical condition is. I feel like I überfordere me today quite. The best friend of all seems not to have this problem. First still behind me, has now taken the lead to it. I admit to, I constantly invent me excuses, Why probably a woman than a man can go the.
After an hour looking at the GPS. Apparently we made only one-third of the ascent. Before us a piece of extremely steep slopes. UFA, This still!
Nothing helps, After two a mouthful Elderberry juice We go about it. The Steep slope is almost not to deal with strong stick adoption. I struggle upward.
What makes the best friend of all? As is often, When she gets to do it with fear (the steep slope is extremely steep, You a little fear) begins to run. I would also like a Turbo! I managed about three quarters and it arrived earlier. I'll now probably must swallow that.

After an hour rest and photography we walk on. Alas, What a fright! We have defeated completely "free" part of the Steilhanges! It is now easily down. at the end of the slope we see Route the ski tour goers, how she circled the steep slope only slight climb!
That is why now enough for us where Lower Mountain House not just out to go towards the Rittner Horn, but the Panoramaweg, hochwindet not at all steep long loops to Rittner Horn.
Our mood is unfortunately slightly cloudy (We had dispute, will be hopefully soon ate) but the Sun in the back for laughs us,It is very warm, the sky fog, fabulous views, the dispute disappears. We walk very slowly, enjoying the light Panorama Trail, the Summit despite.

Huge radio masts (probably radio- or Fernsehumsetzter) bleaker here at summits the Rittner Horn something views. Which Refuge of the Italian Alpine Club, the Club Alpino Italiano (CAI) Despite lively skiing operations, closed but the serving approximately 20 m including the so-called Sheep install is open and offers apart from drinks and nourishing snacks a two cosy, -South, sonnenbeheizte tables, at .

About the Way back I have to report not much today. We decided that the same path to go back more or less. So we trudge this time, the Bank of umrundend, always along the slope up to the Sub Horn House down and then see the cables of the Rittner Horn cable car through, Permanent overlooking the Schlern, Towards the Valley against.
Is as expected Descent compared with the Ascent easily and safely, except that you must be constantly, Skifahreren or Austria do not to come, to create.
Overall a great promising snowshoe hike, the allerdingst is somewhat strict, If you proposed Hiking trail, by on the car park big Hiking panorama cards is shown, missed and goes off along the steep slopes.
