Panoramic trail on the sunny slopes of the Aferer mountains - Description

The Panoramaweg trail runs along the Höfeweg farms trail from St. Georg/S. Giorgio to the Antoniuskapelle chapel in Hinterafers/Eores di Dentro, across the sunny south-facing slopes of the Plose above the Afererer Tal Valley overlooking Brixen/Bressanone.

Directions

  • Start

    village square in Afers/Eores

    The village square in Afers/Eores at the foot of the Plose is the starting point of this scenic family hike. Follow the trail east on the mostly flat Höfestraße farm road near the Church of St. Georg (1,503 m) and descend slightly downhill along an access road signposted with Panoramaweg. The Höfestraße crosses a couple of streams on the Afers sunny slope, connecting the mountain farms in the valley. At the Egarter Hof farm, the trail then continues to the Niederegger Hof and Rindler Hof farms (1,419 m) after crossing the Tilser Bachgraben ditch. Cross the Rawolbgraben ditch past the two other farms: the Feichter Hof and Holzer Hof (1,563 m) before arriving at the Antoniuskapelle in Hinterafers (1,580m).
     
    Return back to the point of departure via the same route.
