Garnitzenalm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A cozy alpine hut with a wonderful sun terrace and lounge chairs. So close to the border, you can enjoy both Austrian dumplings and Italian pasta.

During the summer season, the Garnitzenalm is open from mid-June to mid-September.

Kronalm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

From here you have a gigantic view down into the valley of the Rio Bombaso. Behind it all of Italy extends. It's a great feeling to be on the edge of such a huge country.

I thought 11 km was a reasonable length for the family. The first 4 km were advertised as steep. The remaining kilometers were supposed to be relatively flat down into the valley.

Actually, the kids were already exhausted after the climb, and there were a few uphill sections on the way back. => The spirits were at rock bottom!!!

After a 4.5 hour journey, we took the chairlift up to the Gartnerkofel and from there we went downhill to the Garnitzenalm, which we know from our skiing holiday. Then we marched on the Italian side along the HP6 until we arrived at the hotel over the Passo Pramollo.
