San Canido/Innichen
Snowshoe hike: Wildbad Springs - Riese Haunold Hütte Mountain Hut
An easy, enjoyable snowshoe hike through the snowy woods around San Candido/Innichen.
Sometimes you will go along a trail that may not have been cleared, so snowshoes are an advantage. Among other sights en route, you will also pass the historic Wildbad, which decades ago was a spa town for the nobility. There are also two mountain huts to choose from if refreshments are in order: the Jorahütte or the Riese Haunold Hütte, which is also the end point for this trip.
Getting to the starting point of the tour by public transport is possible (bus number 446 to the bus stop Innichen / Haunold or train 400 to Innichen / San Candido).
Set out with snowshoes between San Candido and Sesto/Sexten, following the signs to Wildbad at the fork in the trail. After Wildbad, a trail branches off to the right to the Jorahütte hut. To get there, you turn off the main route and make a short diversion (30 minutes). Then you return to the original trail and continue the hike to the Riese Haunold Hütte mountain hut. Once you arrive, you have the option of travelling back down to the valley on the chairlift.
Through the Alta Pusteria/Hochpustertal Valley to Innichen by bus, train or car. From there follow the signs to Monte Baranci/Haunold. Park the car at the parking of the chairlift.
