Description

The starting point is the car park at the Oberwurzen farms in Ausservillgraten - Versellerberg (1,720 m). From there, first follow the forest road and turn left at the second hairpin bend. Then continue, initially slightly uphill, later in several hairpin bends uphill to a clearing (2,040 m) with a cross and viewpoint of the Dolomites and Villgraten mountains. For experienced snowshoe hikers, the tour can optionally be extended to the summit of Gabesitten (2,665 m). The ascent follows the ski touring trail. The way back is the same as the ascent.
