Wifey and I took a cable car to Seiser Alm with her sister and niece. It was a glorious reprieve from the heat in the valleys below. We decided to do a hike of course, and I needed to find an easy one. This was as close as I could get.

We started off on a paved road that turned into a smooth gravel road that led to a restaurant and ski lift. We took a single track trail that split off to the right, and climbed steadily ascending, rolling meadows of wildflowers and grasses. The area is dotted with small barns and the occasional cottage.

The hike led us up to the restaurant at the crest of a hill. On a clear day, one could expect spectacular views of the surrounding Dolomites, but alas the day was overcast and cloudy for us. At times enough clouds would break to give us a few glimpses.

We descended by the road, which gave us some partial views of the famous Seceda ridgeline in the distance.

Back near the cable car station we found a nice restaurant for lunch and enjoyed the cool alpine air before the return journey.
