Spring awakening in the Dolomites with hiking guide Helga Tschager. We hike past the "Kaiserstein", Empress "Sissi's" favourite vantage point and place of strength, on trail [9] towards the Hirzel path. With a bit of luck, we meet a few chamois. In the midst of this wild landscape, countless anemones, gentians, various medicinal herbs, freshly sprouted larches and ancient stone pine trees delight us. Right along the path we find sandstone slabs full of shell fossils and a huge stone covered with large and small cairns. Passing several fresh springs, which are perfect for a Kneipp bath to strengthen the heart and increase energy, we come to the Hirzel path towards the Kölner hut. The descent is via trail [1] to the Messnerjoch hut, where we have a late lunch by arrangement or continue directly down to the mountain station. We take the cable car Laurin I back to Welschnofen/Nova Levante, where our lovely day's hike comes to a cool and good end at the Kneipp facility.
