Tour on the Schneid - Description

The ridge of the Schneid  (Eng: “edge”) is an authentic walk on the edge in every sense of the word, forming as it does the border between South Tyrol and Trentino. But have no fear: From a technical point of view, this hike is not particularly difficult. However, given its length, it does call for a bit of stamina. The breathtaking views over the South Tyrol and Trentino Dolomites will reward you for your efforts.
