Arzalpensattel

Arzalpensattel (Forcella Popera)

The Arzalpensattel and the Arzalpenkopf are located in the middle of the Sesto Red Walls and make the idea of biking here more realistic and possible than you ever thought. A high alpine tour with amazing views of the surrounding mountains.


Description

The tour starts in Val Padola at the Hotel Vittorio. From here, the route leads to the Rifugio Italo Lunelli a. Selvapiana quite well pedaling ahead. From around 1550 meters above sea level, the bike is pushed or carried in sections up to the Arzalpensattel via the 101 and 122er path. All around you, the mighty mountain world of the Hochbrunnerschneid, the Zsigmondykopf and the Elferkofel opens up, as well as a tremendous view of the Sextner Rotwand. The military trail of the First World War makes the impossible possible. There is a complete trail up to the Arzalpensattel saddle, which is in a tremendously good condition for alpine conditions. Once you reach the saddle, it's time to get your bike down, sit down and enjoy the panorama.

The summit snack should be eaten with caution and enjoyment, as the descent is initially at S2 to S3 level, but from the Rifugio Antonio Berti it even reaches S4 in places. Refreshments are also available at the Rifugio Antonio Berti, where an excellent coffee is served. Back in Valgrande, take the 171 path back to the Hotel Vittorio. The tour is perfect for a one-day tour in the high alpine terrain of the Sexten Rotwände and makes the impossible possible. However, you should make sure that the weather conditions are stable, as the view to the west is blocked by the massive rock faces.
