    On this tour, we get to know the different faces of the Latemar. Sometimes it presents itself as forbidding and wild, and then it shows its gentle and friendly side. The volcanic inclusions in the limestone cliffs are geologically interesting. At the summit cross, a unique panoramic and panoramic view awaits us.

    Hallo, ist schwierig herauszufinden, am besten bei den örtlichen Stellen nachfragen. War erst vor Kurzem am Karersee, bin aber Richtung Rotwand. ein Großteil des Windwurfes ist schon aufgearbeitet, aber es gibt schon noch, gerade höhere Gebiete in denen noch wahnsinnig viele Bäume liegen.
