Highlight

Legend has it that one upon a time the moon princess fell ill with homesickness in the Dolomites. Thus, a dwarf people covered the mountains with a net of threads of light and the princess was healed. The mountains, however, remained pale mountains.

The well-developed hiking trail network on Mount Plose offers many possible combinations and variants – also for this hike. It is best to use the panorama map to get an overview.
