The hike leads up to the Ratsberg panoramic mountain, from where you have an optimal view of the Dolomite peaks, and there is also a place to stop for refreshments.

The snowshoe hike on the sunny side of Toblach/Dobbiaco offers a beatiful view over the Höhlensteintal/Landro valley and the Toblach/Dobbiaco lake.

IMPORTANT: Before starting any ski tour/snowshoe excursion, you must check the weather conditions and danger avalanches report (https://avalanche.report), asking also experts (alpine guides etc.).
