This scenic circular hike around Niederrasen and Oberrasen offers stunning views of the Dolomites and the surrounding mountains. The varied route combines peaceful forest trails with open sections along the so-called Dolomites panoramic loop, which truly lives up to its name.

After returning to Kirmlehof, follow the Dolomites panoramic loop towards loc. Obergoste. Along this section, you will enjoy repeated breathtaking views of the Dolomites.

The hike can be adapted flexibly: optionally, at Obergoste you can descend via the Altrasen ruins trail to the Altrasen castle ruins and return to Niederrasen.

Overall, the tour offers a varied circular hike with impressive panoramas and inviting refreshment stops.
