The round of the Peirlerkofel |

|||||||||||||||
|
A classical excursion in the Dolomites, around the marvelous massif of the Peitlerkofel. We recommend this hike especially during the blossom of the alpine flora. We drive from Lüsen in direction of Gunggan (12 km) to the parking lot Würzjoch (1998 m). Following the alpine road (mark 8 A), we walk uphill through the meadows in southern direction to the alp Munt de Fornela (2080 m). Now we turn right on the path in south-western direction (mark 8 A), after we hike on the cirque under the eastern part of the Peitlerkofel and follow the serpentines upwards to the Peitlerscharte (2357 m, highest point of the itinerary) and then to the meadows Peitlerwiesen. From here we hike on the path (mark 35) in north-eastern direction to the tavern Utia de Veciara (2110 m). Here we can try the natural products, which are home made. Afterwards we walk slightly uphill to the Gömajoch (2109 m), where we enjoy the panorama for a few minutes and hike on the path (mark 8B) downhill in western direction to the mountain hut Ütia de Göma and Munt de Fornela and back to the parking lot. |

Peitlerkofel (2875m) |

The peak of the Peitlerkofel offers a fabulous view of the Dolomites. The itinerary of the Peitlerkofel is a little bit demanding, so we advise you to follow this itinerary only if you have alpine experience and make sure to take a minimum of climbing equipment with you. The approach to the Peitlerscharte is the same as described in No. 17 (the round on the Peitlerkofel) At the Peitlerscharte we turn left and a path leads us in north-eastern direction to a groove. From there we follow the serpentines to the rocky area and to the wide saddle at the starting point of the peak path (2765 m) The climb is short and the wire cable makes it easier as it looks. A path leads us on the flat slope to the peak of the Peitlerkofel (2875 m). For persons, who prefer not to hike on the rocky slope, there is the easier track to the peak of the Little Peitler (2813 m) which offers also an impressing view. Afterwards we hike back on the way we came. |
