Snowshoe Hike to Maria Weißenstein and the Laab Alm Alpine Farm - Description

This adventurous snowshoe hike leads through forest and meadows to the most famous pilgrimage site in South Tyrol, the Maria Weißenstein monastery, which is well worth a visit. Numerous votive tablets demonstrate how, for centuries, the devout sought refuge and mercy from the mother of god in times of worry or distress.
