Friedrich-August-Weg (western section)

Spectacular ridge hike across the Seiser Alm and Duron Valley. Undoubtedly, the western Friedrich-August-Weg, the crossing of the Seiser Kamm ridge ("Auf der Schneid") from the Fassa Pass to the Tierser Alpl Pass, doesn't quite possess the allure of the eastern route. However, it still remains a fascinating high-altitude trek between Val Gardena and Val di Fassa, across the Seiser Alm and Duron Valley. On the return journey to Campitello, we are then treated to the beauty of the inner Valle di Duron, its towering cliffs, picturesque alpine pastures, and famous "elephant's back" ridges.
