It is called “Mauraberg” or “Chi Jus”, and it is a plain elevation in the shadow of the mighty Sass de Putia - nevertheless it is a first choice viewpoint and ideal for a little mountain walk
Image gallery: Hike from Passo delle Erbe to the Monte Muro
September is drawing to a close and afternoons like the one today should be enjoyed to the fullest. From the parking space "Pre de Börz" along the road to Passo delle Erbe, above Antermoia, we follow the signpost n° 1 to the Monte Muro mountain hut. It is a forest trail that can easily be walked and that leads to the 2,130 m high mountain hut, across the Swiss pine forest to the alpine pastures above the tree line.
From the mountain hut, there is a path leading to Passo d'Alfrei, where you can enjoy a fantastic view: in front of us the moon-like landscape of Mt Plose, the peaks of the Odle di Eores, Mt Sass de Putia, the Fanes Group and the main Alpine divide from the Stubai to the Zillertal Alps. The path proceeds to the cross at the summit of Mt Muro (2,332 m a.s.l.), from where you can enjoy a perfect view to the Fundres Mountains as well as to the Alpe di Luson and Alpe di Rodengo pastures.
