Turn-by-turn directions

Starting from the hotel Franzenshöhe we head along the Stelvio Pass Road, which leads briefly downhill to hairpin bend 25. Follow trail no. 12 to the upper Tartscher Alm mountain hut. We continue on a wide military road and hiking trail until we reach trail no. 20, the Goldsee Lake Trail, which we follow upwards to the top of the Stelvio Pass. Here we cross the pass and walk past the restaurant Tibet and briefly upwards along the “Signalkopfweg” trail. Along a rocky trail, we proceed downhill to our starting point. TIP: For summit experts and those with mountain experience, we recommend a detour to the Rötlspitze (Piz Cotschen) shortly before reaching the top of the Stelvio Pass. This 3,000 metre peak can be reached in around 20 minutes from this point of the tour.
