The striking Rammelstein, Percha’s local mountain, offers an impressive panorama and magnificent views.
The hike up the Rammelstein combines varied forest trails, alpine pastures offering stunning views and a striking ascent to the summit, making for an impressive mountain trek high above the Puster Valley. Right from the start, the route takes you through a sparse coniferous forest. As you continue, you steadily gain altitude, with some steeper sections requiring a good level of fitness. A special stop-off is the cosy Gönneralm, from where a sweeping view opens up over Bruneck, the Puster Valley and the surrounding mountains. Above the tree line, the character of the walk changes: open alpine meadows, extensive heathland and an almost flat alpine ridge characterise this particularly scenic section towards the summit. The final ascent to the Rammelstein takes you over steep, rocky and, in places, stony terrain. At the summit, you’ll be rewarded with an impressive 360-degree panorama. Far below lie the Antholz Valley and the Puster Valley, whilst the surrounding mountain ranges rise up on the horizon. The route is suitable for experienced walkers who wish to combine a varied ascent, a cosy place to stop for refreshments and an extraordinary summit panorama. Sure-footedness and suitable footwear are required for the rocky final ascent.
