Hiking in the Dolomites - summer and winter holidays in the Val di Funes in South Tyrol

Our Glatsch Alm, situated at the foot of the impressive Odle mountains, is the ideal starting point for numerous hikes in the Puez-Odle Nature Park and surrounding area

The Glatsch Alm is a good starting point for easy but also for more difficult alpine tours. The Glatsch Alm has a direct connection to the “Adolf Munkel” path and to the Dolomite path n° 2.


1. The “Adolf Munkel” path at the bottom of the great “Geisler” mountains is one of the most beautiful paths in the Dolomites. You start at the parking area “Zanser Alm” (1678 m) and you follow the path n° 6 in direction of “Tschantschenon” until the bridge that crosses the brook “Tschatschenon”. Before the bridge, at the right the “Adolf Munkel” path begins with the n° 35. This path brings you to the alpine inn Glatsch Alm if you turn right. After a nice stay in the Glatsch Alm you can take the alpine street and go back to the “Zanser Alm”.
Hiking time: 1,5 - 2 hours
Degree of difficulty: easy-middle


2. From the village of “St. Magdalena”, starting at the hotel “Ranuimüllerhof” you follow the alpine street along the brook in direction of the “Zanser Alm”. At the car park you pass “Zanser Alm”, you follow the alpine street until you arrive at Glatsch Alm. From there you turn right and you follow the marvellous “Adolf Munkel” path until you reach “Gschnagenhardt” or “Geisleralm”. From there you go to the “Brogles-Alm” and you come back to your starting point.
Hiking time: 5-6 hours
Degree of difficulty: middle


3. In winter you can let off steam on the new toboggan run, up to 6 km long, which leads to “St. Magdalena”. The ascent begins at the “Zanser Alm”, which can be reached comfortably by bus and where toboggans can be rented. After an approximately 40-minute ascent through an untouched winter landscape, you arrive at our Glatsch Alm, where you are provided with food and drink and can enjoy the wonderful nature on the sun terrace. Now the fast fun can begin.
