Tour

Start with your own car until the entrance of the Pragser Tal/Valle di Braies (ca. 25 min.) On the bikeway towards Bruneck/Brunico, at Mitterolang/Valdaora di Mezzo turn left and pass the cablecar which brings on the Kronplatz/Plan de Corones and long the river until Bad Bergfall. Here make a right and up on the Furkelpass/Passo Furcia. Down towards Sankt Vigil/San Vigilio and on the left passing under the funicular Miara on path nr. 19. Going into the lonesome valley the path is getting steeper and at the end only the strongest are able to remain into the saddle. Partly pushing we arrive at the Kreuzpass/Passo Croce (2.283 m). This is the place to admire the panorama and have a rest. Keep on path nr. 24 and at the end of the nice valley down on path nr. 25. Before we had to pay attention because we had to pass some exposed points. Always down in this beautiful valley passing the Grünwaldalm and arriving at the Pragser Wildsee/lago di Braies/lake. Take a left and at the Hotel Pragser Wildsee a right to finish on path nr. 1, which leads to Prags/Braies and back to your car.
