Val Gardena

Hike to the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage viewpoint Mastlé

Nem

The Dolomites are part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 2009. This hike leads to the newly-built Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage viewpoint – Mastlé, which shows you what makes the Dolomites so extraordinary, specifically, their geological and landscape features.

The starting point is the valley station of the cable car Col Raiser, which is located in the municipality of Selva Gardena, but is not far from the centre of S. Cristina. It can be reached by internal shuttle buses or by car (chargeable parking on site).

The cable car takes you to the Col Raiser. This is where the exciting hike in the heart of the Puez-Odle Nature Park begins. From the mountain station, a forest trail leads to the newly-built Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage viewpoint – Mastlé S. Cristina Val Gardena, which is located at 2,200 metres above sea level. The trail beneath the Fermeda Towers leads first to the rustic Pieralongia hut and then to the traditional Troier hut. From here, you can descend back to the starting point.
