Suggestions
If you are looking for a beautiful vantage point over the entire Val Casies Valley, the Gsieser Törl is the right place for you! On hot days it is recommended to start as early as possible, since only the first section of the trail (approx. 45 min) offers shadow, do not forget sunscreen!

Maddalena continue straight ahead into the valley to the hamlet Rotmoos, follow the trail no. 49 to the mountain huts Messner Hütte (1660m) and Kradorfer Alm (1704m) up to the Oberbergalm (1975m) and further uphill to the Gsieser Törl (2205m).
