We woke up early, had breakfast and headed out to explore and hike the area. This area in the Dolomites is especially known for hiking and its hiking trails. We took a 10 minute drive to the base of one of the mountains in the area, and took a cable car up to the top. Cable cars are all over the area and choosing which one to take is not easy. We had gotten a suggestion from someone at our hotel and therefore headed to Seis Am Schlern to board the
cable car up to Compatsch. For the next 3 or 4 hours, Gail and I hiked throughout the meadows and hills of the Alpe Di Siusi. It really was a wonderful and exciting time, but when we completed the “suggested” hike, we were exhausted. Obviously, we are not in the same shape as many of the natives that we met along the paths. All along the hiking trails were “huttes” or small places to get some food or drinks, so at one point we stopped for a beer and a cola.
After taking the cable car down the mountain, we drove a bit around the area and returned to our hotel and dinner. We were both rather tired from all that hiking, so we went to bed earlier than usual.
