A slight Schneeschuhwanderung with a refreshment stop possible, that is to be Villanders Alpine pasture offer. Ideal for the three snowshoe newbies . The three would today is the first time test whether they snowshoe hiking would like.

Snowshoe hike on the Villanders Alpine pasture

Six (that best Freundin von allen , Her sister and her brother-in-law, i, My sister and her friend) We start towards Klausen, continue to Villanders and up to the Villanders Alpine pasture.

The starting point of the snowshoe hike is the large paid car park (4 Euro ) prior to the Gasser Refuge. We trudge along the Toboggan run the Hiking trail No. . 15 along . The objective is Stoefflhuette, where we want to take a break for lunch.

The snow-covered trail could be addressed easily without snowshoes but with the Snowshoes is it much funnier. Also you can soft by the deep with snow gehhilfen Schnee trudging without getting your feet wet immediately.

The Alpine trail is not cumbersome, We have only 300 Altitude up to the Stöffl cottage before us. According to digital network South Tyrol We should be promoted in approximately 1,5 Create hours, a Spaziergang so. The Snow hiking trail is well sign-posted, again we see signs Stöffelhütte. After about half an hour we leave the tree area and now wander through white meadows of the Stöffel hut contrary to. There is so much snow, that only the tips of wood fencing out treatments through the snow.

Just before 12 Hour we reach to 250 Meter. Search quickly in and a table. We are shameless lucky and get the final table. Six push us four tables and study the food curious- and drinks menu. The choice of food is quite small, We find especially typical South Tyrol ALM dishes before: Dumplings , Dumplings and again dumplings. I love dumplings, therefore I think that super! I order goulash with dumplings and a glass of Lagrein. The other order salad with dumplings, only one falls out of line and want one Carabonara.

The stew is perfect and the dumplings are the best I've ever eaten in my opinion. I like them when they fairly compact, solid and "brotig". There is a delicious apple strudel as dessert.

To approximately 14.00 We set clock. We want to take the same route back and decide to move us towards further Dead Sea to in a big loop cross country through the snowy Alpine meadows walk back to our starting point.

The decision is dead right. Because the way is not running we have a real Snowshoe hiking experience. The snow is firm and we walk through the snow cover, the snow is soft and we must fight us knee deep through the snow.

Also with regard to weather we are lucky dogs today. It looks like so, down South everything is even, While here on the Villanderer Alm take the Sun seems. It won't warm yet. Minus 4 Grad displays the GPS device. I like the Schneeschuhneueinsteiger. The downhill walking is really funny. Wonderful to wade through the soft wading snow. The stunning mountain panorama make the rest to. All three decide to buy snowshoes to the Schneestapf experience of Schneeschuhleih organizational issues often to enjoy.

Our “Ciaspolata” now leads us through mountain pine boxes (You can see only particular tips) hinunter in which Baumzone. We cross a Creek cross country and find us again on the cross-country track again it flows into the way into.

After approximately 12 We come km Snowshoeing at the Gasser Refuge, at our starting point at.

A great hike, very easy , a wonderful mountain panorama, Snowshoe hiking feeling arises only if you away from the road or further than going to the Stöffl hut.
