DESCRIPTION
Fantastic ride on the Alpe di Siusi between huts and spectacular views.
The Alpe di Siusi is one of the best known areas of South Tyrol for summer and winter hiking.
Numerous viewpoints await you along the loop tour. In our humble opinion, the view over the Alp, Val Gardena, Castelrotto and the surrounding Dolomite peaks is one of the best in Südtirol. You will also visit a magical place: the Witches' Benches. Legend has it that in that place the witches gathered to dance and to perform their magical rites.
