From Saltria at 1,680 m a.s.l., a hamlet of the municipality of Castelrotto we walk along path no. 9 towards Malga Tirler via the Floralpina Hotel. Malga Tirler is one of the most well-known mountain huts of the Alpe di Siusi and even received an award. We therefore recommend stopping for a break here.
We proceed along path no. 8 and climb towards the place where the Dialer mountain hut used to be until 2010. Only the adjacent chapel has survived to this day. The route follows a wide forest path, which, in the last section, is characterised by a steep ascent with hairpin bends. The swishing water of Rio Dialer flows right next to us as we tackle the last ascent. On the meadows graze Haflinger horses. At an altitude of 2,150 m a.s.l. we enjoy the impressive panoramic views of Sassolungo and Sasso Piatto, as well as of Mt Molignon and the Denti di Terrarossa.
Then, we walk along path no. 7 towards the Molignon hut at 2,054 m a.s.l. and then we follow the signposts n. 12 and 12A. Path no. 30 takes us back to Saltria, our starting point.
