Varied half-day panorama tour to the Marinzenhütte in the Seiser Alm region. A fun, high-altitude technical ride for a select few fit riders. Difficulty S1. Set off on the e-Bike from Gasko Bike to the Seiser Alm cable car and relax in the cabin up to Compatsch, which is both the start and highest point of this tour. Just below Compatsch, the hiking trail forks off towards Spitzbühl. After the Jaggl-Schwaige, which offers a lawn for sunbathing on deckchairs and is a delight for the kids with its petting zoo, the route turns into an enjoyable trail, which flows really nicely down to the car park for the Spitzbühl chairlift. After a few metres heading downhill on the Seiser Alm road, head to the right down the parallel gravel road towards Gstatsch. This part of the trail is a real pleasure for technically-minded bikers. All other bikers are best staying on the Seiser Alm road. The varied ridgeway to Marinzenhütte then starts at Hotel Gstatsch. An alpine meadow opens up following a short section through the forest: Here, the view of the impressive Schlern mountains with the striking Sante Spitze is a real treat. Things continue with a constant up and down to the magnificently located Marinzenhütte. Sun terrace, sunbathing lawn, petting zoo, a small lake and a kids’ play area make this snack station a popular tourist spot. Just one kilometre further on, you will find the isolated Schafstall cabin, which draws you in with home-made cake and kaiserschmarrn, before a steep gravel road heads back downhill to the Wasserebene restaurant. On the final stretch to the St. Valentin checkpoint, this tour treats you to one more magnificent view of Kastelruth, before it heads back to the starting point in Seis.
