Further information and useful links

The starting point of the hike is the Berg am Boden parking lot at the end of the Vals Valley. From there, follow the signs towards Fane Alm. The route first follows the paved road for a short distance until you reach Kurzkofel Hut, where you cross the stream. Here, the Milk Trail, Trail No. 17, begins and climbs steadily uphill. Along the trail, information boards explain South Tyrol's dairy farming.

After the ascent, you reach Fane Alm, the destination of the hike. This charming alpine village is nestled in the heart of the mountain landscape.
