Forced Overtime In Ph

The great Mendel round

circular walk from cold to Mendel and back
16 km, 1200 Hm, 5 hours

We start of St. Anton / Pozzo in Kaltern (500 m) and get the fastest way to Mendel, Mendel the old gate. This is slightly north of the railway and Mendel is already totally snow and ice. Twice we cross the Mendel Pass road and come to a good 1.5 hours Mendel Pass (1370 m). Now on the icy road No. 500 in the past called Enzianhütte (Genzianella) and Halbweghütte (1580 m) to the Lavinaspitze (1650 m), Monte lira. From Mendel Pass to here it is about 1 hour. And here we have a great view of Bolzano up to Neumarkt (see panorama), I could sit here for hours in the sun and enjoy the panorama, but I must still return to cold. For

the descent, we take the route No. 538, the so-called Prozoller gate. This is even steeper than the climb Mendel in the rise and bring us back to the sports facilities and through the woods to St. Anton.

That used to be my Trainigsrunde (I have many years in Kaltern usual), but by then I had other, shorter lap times in memory. Whether that is located on the icy road ... or in the 15 years that have passed are :-(?
