Unterradein/Redagno di Sotto - Schwarzhorn/Corno Nero - Description

The Weißhorn and Schwarzhorn are the two southernmost horns of the Dolomites. They are characterised by a wonderful mountain silhouette, pyramid-shaped. They belong to the local mountains of the Unterland and are known for their 360-degree distant views. Whether King Ortles, Brenta Dolomites, Lagorai Group or Schlern-Rosengarten: from here you can see them all! The Schwarzhorn is quite unjustly overshadowed by its actually "smaller brother", the Weihorn. 

Why actually white and black? The "Trudner Line" runs through here, the geological fault line between porphyry and dolomite rock. Borders merge in this area in the tension between languages, cultures, the mediterranean south and the alpine north. A delight of enriching contrasts!
