Plose Bressanone

Circular hike to Freienbühl and Palmschoß

The little church of Maria Hilf at Freienbühel is not simply an ancient pilgrimage church, it is a magical place of rest and relaxation. The little church rises on a hill in the middle of the alpine forest, high above Bressanone, with a view of Mount Plose.
