The winter hike to the Staller Saddle is one of the most beautiful winter tours in Antholzertal.
Starting from the Biathlon Centre at Lake Antholz, the route climbs steadily through an impressive winter landscape to the mountain pass on the border between South Tyrol and East Tyrol.
Along the way, magnificent views open up over snow-covered Lake Antholz and the surrounding peaks of the Rieserferner Group. Upon reaching the Staller Saddle, hikers are rewarded with an impressive panorama and the opportunity to stop for a relaxing break and refreshments.
The tour is ideal for anyone looking for a scenic winter hike with a moderate ascent.
The starting point is the car park at the biathlon centre by Lake Antholz.
From there, follow the road past the Tiroler Hütte. After the Antholzer Wildsee Haus, the groomed winter hiking trail begins (with the option to toboggan; hikers have priority). The trail first leads to the far side of Lake Antholz and then continues at a pleasant gradient up to the Staller Saddle.
Upon reaching the Staller Saddle, hikers can enjoy magnificent views of the snow-covered mountain landscape and the surrounding peaks. The return follows the same route.
Take bus line 431 from the Olang-Antholz train station to reach Lake Antholz, the starting point of the winter hike.
