July 3, 2022,Südtirol 2022 - Tour 1, Meran 2000 zum Kreuzjöchl (Lieblingstour)

Today it was already reported quite hot. That's why we decided on our favorite tour on Meran 2000 right on the first day.
We climbed into the cable car from the Falzeben car park and rode to the mountain station. That's where I started Komoot.

Since a thunderstorm was approaching, we took the Falzeben chairlift back down to Falzeben. Alternatively, it's a 40-minute walk to the valley station

Today again with Meran 2000 high and made a nice hut tour at 26 degrees. The destination was the Falzeben valley station, then we took the bus back to the valley where we saw 38 degrees. At some point it will be cooler again.. 😃

This is how the year 2022 can end! We had glorious weather and hiked from Falzeben to the player 😊 A quite remote summit cross despite its proximity to the ski area. The view on the Kreuzjöchl plateau is really terrific and you could see right into the Dolomites 😍
We were definitely not here in winter for the last …
