Kofler zwischen Wänden, which means Kofler between walls, is the ideal name for a mountain farm perched in the middle of a rock ledge. Worthwhile destination, extreme location, exciting easy walk. Special feature on the side of the path: the wolf pit in which, according to legend, wolves used to be caught.
Be aware of the avalanche danger. More information at the alpine schools and the mountain guides.
