One Pilgrimage, on foot, so as before, that would be something beautiful. Mother's best friend of all this wish. No problem, your wish fulfilled. The goal is quickly found: is it the Pilgrimage Church by San Romedio in Trentino.

By Graun above Kurtatsch should be to create really walk. The Grauner are also used on the Grauner yoke rise to the Italians in the Val di non (Val di non ) lively Commerce drive. Apparently that was sold liquor, He was in short supply in Val di non. If earlier the people with 30 until 40 Litre liquor until after Coredo, Moved Sanzeno or Romeno, then we will hopefully also achieve this with our light back bags.

We start in all her God early in the forest bar on the Forest road above Graun on 980 m . (d). M. First we walk the forest road along in serpentines towards Grauner Bay high. Occasionally we cut a forest road of Steep track from , but always return to the forest road.

Old Grauner Joch road

After about an hour not too anstrengender hike "we see a sign indicating our rights"Old Grauner Joch road“. The sign has a fairly steep climb, the us to the highest point in our today's hike, No pilgrimage, do you want to.

Abbreviate and rise steeply upwards or rather gently along the forest road March? Hmm…, good question. Because we have spent an hour on the forest road and especially since we suspect, the trail again just leaves the forest road to then later evolve into the training path, We decide to take the path in attack.

Our idea was not quite as true unfortunately. The path is very steep and leads us back to the forest road. Mother of's best friend of all strikes still bravely.

Snap, further wandern, Snap on hiking, to scarce 2 We come on hours at the Grauner yoke 1.800 m.

Again a short rest on a bench. Now the question is whether we left towards Cow laying und St . Barbara or to the right towards "Verbrenntes Egg"”, Black head, Roen must. Since the "Verbrenntes Egg"” offers a stunning view we go right. So it is not actually. You should not cheating on a pilgrimage. We go to the right, because we know simply better.

The pilgrimage is "real"” Pilgrimage with many hardships. Most "Roman egg"” arrived an opaque smoke screen blocks the view of the US unfortunately Südtiroler Unterland . What a pity , a shame but a pilgrimage Yes not a pleasure to or?

About 50 m the “Roman egg” We'll be back at one Crossroads over . This time it is clear, "we must turn left in direction"Vecchia Malga di Coredo” down.

The way is quite wide, you could even use it with an off-road vehicle, but he is also quite Rocky, so as each step must be careful.

When the "Vecchia" Malga di Coredo” We ask the host to be safe after track after San Romedio. It shall ensure, We really think the San Romedio sanctuary and offers us then, that the way to be very very long. Nice views…

We walk the right on the Vecchia Malga di Coredo past Sunken road down. After half an eternity is the way flat and is forest road now a good easy to begehender, the us through the forest where Torrent San Romedio runs along towards the San Romedio. The host was right. The way is long and because it is rather boring without much variety, give us the feeling to be hours of hours on the road.

Once a chamois crosses our Path . When she sees us immediately takes them flee and klättert with massive jumps a nearly normal-looking for us wall up.

The sanctuary of San Don

Finally after about 5,5 Hours Let's for the small Monastery San Romedio. An impressive building, It was built on a Rocky Ridge away from human settlements. The name is the St. Romedius, probably a Tyrolean from Innsbruck and surroundings, at the turn of the 7. to the 8. Century had lived. Apparently he had Hermit always a Bears This, so often today than the Holy the bear known and often is portrayed riding on a bear.

Since 1948 is the monastery of the Franciscans led. Located directly at the monastery a Bear Park. Now that I see the bear enclosure I can remind me of my childhood. I was here and have admired the great bear with my family! Aha, Therefore the monastery came before me as well.

Since 2007 should now according to Wikipedia, which Bear Jurka (the mother of the Problem bears JJ1) live here. If this is true also, can I not say unfortunately, We see no bears.

But now to the sanctuary. We get about 131 steep stone steps upwards to Castle-like Church. More are inside Churches on 3 Split floors and an impressive Cloister He man sized figures that vividly and impressively represent the cloister of Christ.

• Church dell'Addolorata (built after the war 1915-18)
• Church of San Giorgio (built in 1489)
• Church of San Michele (built in 1514)
• Church San Romedio (built in 1536)
• Old church (built as the first, contains the urn containing the relics of St. Romedius)

The churches are not only for a faithful Catholics beautiful. The best friend of all takes the opportunity of course one Candle light.

At the top under the roof there is an imposing view point which frees the glance in depth and impressively demonstrate this building to visitors represents how tremendously, coming from the road, work must.

Access is possible but not with your own car. Man must use a shuttle service, he drives the visitors through the narrow gorge to the monastery.

Here I agree with the now Hiking report – No Pilgrimage report with the conclusion: rather boring tour, If the fog the beautiful view of the obstructed Südtiroler Unterland, but beautiful church that necessarily look at non-believers. Wehr, so a long March not afraid and has a better weather forecast when we proposed, He should make the pilgrimage at some point in his life.
