Puez-Geisler Nature Park High-Alpine Hiking Trails
Val di Funes serves as a prime access point to the vast network of trails within the Puez-Geisler Nature Park, a core area of the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage site. This network includes routes ranging from easy, family-friendly walks through lush forests and alpine meadows to demanding high-altitude treks requiring good physical condition and experience. Hikers can explore diverse landscapes, from verdant valleys to rugged rocky terrain, often leading to stunning panoramic viewpoints of the Geisler peaks. Many trails connect to various unlisted mountain huts where refreshments are available. Accessibility varies by season, with most high-alpine routes open from late May/early June to late October, weather permitting. Free access to trails, guided tours available from local providers (fees apply).
