Monte Roen
Description
The starting point for the ascent up to Monte Roen is usually the Mendel Pass, which can be reached quickly and easily by funicular from Tramin. It is also possible to take a bike shuttle up the pass road. The 850 meters in altitude gained in this way are well invested. The reason for the shuttle is obvious right from the start: the climb up to the summit of Monte Roen is not without its challenges. From the Mendel Pass, the tour starts fairly quickly on a steep gravel road up to the halfway hut (Rifugio Mezzavia). Continue in the same style to the Malga di Romeno hut just below the Roen summit. The last section is then really steep. The route now leads up a singletrail, which also includes a section of pushing. You are rewarded at the summit with a sensational panorama of the Dolomites, the large valley floor of Bolzano and the Wine Road and the Brenta on the opposite side. You will also be rewarded with a top-class descent. This involves 15 kilometers of single trail. First you follow the mountain ridge, the trail here is challenging and rough in places, especially around the Schwarzer Kopf. Eventually you reach the Grauner Joch in this way. Turn left here and head towards the valley floor. Initially challenging, the trail then becomes increasingly flowing. In this way you reach the village of Graun and later - again via trails - the village of Tramin. You now roll through the vineyards and past Lake Kaltern back to Kaltern.
