Die Almhütte Sesselschwaige befindet sich in einer herrlichen Lage mitten im Naturpark Schlern-Rosengarten.
Die gemütliche Almhütte im Naturpark Schlern-Rosengarten Die Sesselschwaige am Schlern, dem Südtiroler Wahrzeichen An der Waldgrenze, eine knappe Wegstunde unterhalb der weitläufigen Hochebene des Schlerns liegt die Sesselschwaige. Umgeben von grünen Wiesen unweit eines lieblichen Gebirgsbaches ist sie ein willkommener Einkehrpunkt bei Wanderungen im Schlernmassiv oder auf dem Weg zu den Schlernhäusern. Die gemütliche kleine Almhütte auf 1940 m Meerehöhe ist jedoch auch für sich ein lohnendes Tourenziel, nicht nur der typischen, einheimischen Spezialitäten und frischen hausgemachten Milchprodukte wegen. Da die Alm nur auf dem Fußwege erreichbar und fern aller Zufahrtsstraßen gelegen ist, lassen sich hier in einer geradezu unwirklich friedlichen Atmosphäre des Naturparks Schlern-Rosengarten der Ausblick in die umliegenden Wälder und Berge und die Ruhe der Natur genießen – ohne Kitsch und bunten Zauber. Die Alm ist zu Fuß von Völs am Schlern, Tiers oder der Seiser Alm a
