Route description
The hike to the Schlanderser and Kortscher Alm starts in Kortsch. The best way to get there is by car from Silandro/Schlanders and park at the left-hand bend in the road leading to the Sonnenberghöfe farms (note: limited parking!). Here, hikers follow the well-marked path no. 4 and stroll through the steep slopes to the former Mühlgütl next to the rushing Schlandrauner stream.
Here the path becomes a little steeper and leads to the former Schupferhof farm and the Schlanderser Alm, the first stage destination of the excursion. After a short break, follow the same route to the end point of the tour, the Kortscher Alm, which is impressively situated in the centre of the west-facing Schlandrauner mountains.
