View of Alpe di Siusi

Highlight • Viewpoint

Just a MUST for the hiking fans of the Sassolungo group in the Dolomites: A path can be this: starting from the bus stop at the Passo Sella, follow the signs "Naturonda". You reach the "Stone City" under the vertical northern walls of the Langkofel and walk here through a breathtaking natural landscape. Along the course, information boards provide insights into the Val Gardena flora and fauna. So you can learn a lot about the appearance, the food intake and the habitat of the living in the wild animals such as fox, rabbit and groundhog. The panels also provide information on the floral world, geology and regional herbs. The way back is via the hiking trail number 526.

Oskar Schuster Via Ferrata

Highlight • Climb

Despite the low technical difficulties (B/C, 1+), the Oskar Schuster Steig is a serious mountain tour that requires appropriate experience, surefootedness and skill. It is not recommended for beginners, children, families or occasional hikers.

Route description:
From the usually existing entry snowfield on a ramp, initially secured (A/B), then climb up to a gully with easy climbing (1+). Secured with a rope (B) over the gully, then climb on a ledge on the right edge or in the gully (longer 1 and 1+). From the ledge, steeply (B/C) onto a ledge (B), on this to a wall (B/C), at the top slightly to the right (B) to the spread step (B). Over a wall (B) and at the top of the edge (B) into a scree cirque. Go to the other side to the yellow wall. On brackets (B) higher up to the ladder (A), after the ladder you come to a narrow gap (B/C). After the crack, climb up to the ledge via two wall steps (B/C and B). Go left on the ledge and climb higher in the gully (1). The gully becomes wider, climb higher on the right edge of the gully (up to 1+). Before the summit ridge there is a rock tower, to the left of the rock tower go through the crack (1+) onto the summit ridge and walk the last few meters on the normal route to the summit cross.

Oskar Schuster was one of the German climbing pioneers in the Dolomites. In 1895 he marked a daring ascent along the walls of the Plattkofel.

Plattkofel / Sasso Piatto Summit

Highlight • Summit

Sassopiatto is the peak that actually separates Val Gardena from Val di Fassa. Its summit, at almost 3000 meters above sea level, offers a splendid panorama of the nearby Sassolungo, the Marmolada group and the Catinaccio. The normal route, which develops along the wide and stony east face, with never excessive and always constant slopes, does not present any technical difficulty and is therefore very popular. The path, marked with red stamps and stone cairns, climbs with steep hairpin bends, without pauses and without the possibility of error. Some 1st degree passages invite you to use your hands. At the end, go around the ridge on the right until you reach the outlet from which the historic Oskar Schuster via ferrata ascends. After passing the notch you arrive at the summit cross via easy rocks (1h from the Sasso Piatto refuge with a good pace). Below us the impressive precipice that separates from the long blade of rock of the Sassolungo. Fantastic views on Punta Grohmann and Innerkofler allow you to glimpse Piz Boè and the Marmolada, while across the board the panorama runs from Val Gardena to the Odle, from the Alpe di Siusi to the Denti di Terra Rossa to the Catinaccio, from Lagorai to the Monzoni.

NOTES: normal route uphill with dog on a leash.

Plattkofel Hut (Rifugio Sasso Piatto)

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Plattkofelhütte is a large, modern refuge on the Alpe di Siusi. Here you have a 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding mountain ranges and the beautiful landscape of Europe's largest high alpine pasture with its numerous sheep and calves. The cabin is still fairly new and therefore comfortable. You can eat delicious here and then stay in a rustic bed and breakfast or in comfortable rooms. The hut is open from June to October.

View of Plattkofel and Langkofel

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Sassolungo with its 3,181 meters is the highest mountain of the Sassolungo group in the Val Gardena Dolomites. From here you have a great view of the impressive mountain, which looks really huge from "bottom".

Sella Pass Between Langkofel and Plattkofel

Highlight • Trail

Ingenious tour counter-clockwise, exhausting but peppered with many great views. Snow fields, scree and steep ramps of up to 40% make this tour unforgettable.
