May 1, 2025,1. Mai Wanderung

On this sunny day in South Tyrol, my niece and I walked from the hiking car park to the Barbian Waterfalls. The view is unique, and we enjoyed the sun and the hike. We chose the route so that we climbed the steep and rocky sections and descended the equally steep but less rocky section.
I recommend sturdy shoes and …

The altitude should not put off leisurely hikers either. There are so many beautiful benches on the way up. The path to the top is very lovingly and artistically designed. Make sure to take a mini detour to the upper waterfall. Great place to linger and cool off. A final stop at the Gasthaus Traube is highly recommended.

Sweaty beautiful tour. It would have been ideal if, after about 150 meters of altitude, there would have been an outside shower every 30 meters to cool off the head. Unfortunately, only my own sweat wipe towel remained for relief.
