Hi Jeremy,

Yes, reversing the route makes a lot of sense – that way you’ll ascend the more demanding sections. This works well as a leisurely 2-day hike. Eat lunch at Rifugio Bolzano and maybe a second lunch at Gostner Schwaige on the plateau.

Have a great trip!
Sabrina

Love your blog! It’s super informative and I’ve been really enjoying it as I plan a trip to Val Gardena next year. I will be travelling with my parents (late 60s) who are physically fit but my Mom has a fear of heights if the trail narrows and there is a steep drop. She is also much more surefooted going up versus descending, so any of those sections would be better for her going up. I’d love to do this loop with them as a two day hike, staying at Rifugio Alpe di Tires. My only concern is the steep descent you describe coming back from Rifugio Alpe di Tires. What would this loop be like if you did it in reverse? Do you think that would make things better for her? And do you think doing this as a 2 day with a stop for lunch at Rifugio Bolzano on the second day is a good plan? Thank you!

Hi Sarah,
Thank you for reading our blog!
Are you thinking about starting the hike in Eggental/Val d’Ega to hike up to Santner Pass? It might be a bit strange to hike from Rifugio Bolzano to Santner Pass and then back up to Tierser Alpl. Check out the 3-day circuit route on the map in our Rosengarten trek.

I was wondering if you think doing one night at Rifugio Bolzano, the next night at Tierser Alpl is almost too leisurely? (It is a holiday after all!) Was hoping that with breaking it up, it would give option to do some out and back hikes whilst I’m up there, knowingly having a place to stay and not get back at an unreasonable hour. Was also considering adding Santner Pass (and then walking all the way back down to Comptasch) to make it 3 nights.

Would love to hear your thoughts
