Through snowy meadows and forests to the Obere Stilfser Alm Alpine farm.
General description
This leisurely winter hike along an Alpine and farm trail leads to the Untere and Obere Stilfser Alm Alpine farms. Hikers follow a gentle forest trail through snowy meadows and forests to the Obere Stilfser Alm Alpine farm (2,077 m).
Route description
The starting point for this beautiful winter hike is the car park above Fragges in Stilfs/Stelvio. Head along forest trail no. 2 as far as the wildlife reserve. Once there, take the fork to the right and stay on trail no. 2 until you reach the Untere Stilfser Alm Alpine farm. As the route to the Untere Stilfser Alm Alpine farm largely follows the forest road, it is not a difficult hike.
