The summit of Corno Bianco rises to 2,316 meters above sea level and offers an impressive 360 degree view.

From the top, in fact, you can see the Catinaccio, the Latemar, the Val di Non Alps, as well as on Lavazè, the Corno Nero and up to the Val d'Adige. The effort is amply rewarded.

Haniger Schwaige

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Alm hut Haniger Schwaige is managed by funny and very concerned about the well-being of their guests host people. The food is adequate in size and price. If you give a small tip, there is also a apricot schnapps as a bonus (from the liquor barrel with secret compartment)

A small zoo with cheeky goats, pigs and an alpaca as well as rabbits running around the hut conjure up a smile on the faces of little hikers.

Great climb up and down with little "crawls" and a brilliant view. It's a lot of fun. It is advisable to start walking as early as possible.

This was my third time here and the route has changed. There was a lot of rubble here, everything was very “porous”. It's worth enjoying this view, unique rocks.

Beautiful all-round view and views into the far distance. The Rifugio Torre di Pisa can be reached in different ways. The "easier" way from the Oberholz mountain station runs over the 360° panorama, via path no. 22 and then from the junction uphill via path no. 516. Climbing up (easy climbing passages) was fun, but down some places were not so experienced already challenging.
