5 absolute classic attractions: off into nature!

• The Three Peaks: UNESCO World Heritage Site
  Observe them from afar, watch them from the sky, hike to them, walk around them, climb up them – the Three Peaks can be admired from different perspectives. Which one will be your favourite?
• The Three Peaks View: peaking through the keyhole
  For those who first only want to have a brief look of the imposing trio, they can do that about 7 km from Toblach in Höhlensteintal in Landro. A wood platform shows you which way to look and a free telescope is available. On a clear day you can see the north faces of the Three Peaks also with the naked eye.
• Fischleintal: picture-postcard views in Sexten
  It is only 4.5 km long, but every metre is decked out with scenic beauty. You simply can't get enough of the panoramic view all around you, therefore you might need a little bit longer to get back.
• Plätzwiese: so close to the sky
  The high pasture in the Fanes Sennes Prags Natural Park is at an altitude of 2,000 m and provides beautiful views. The high pasture does not only tempt you to go for a hike, but also mountain biking. If you hike to Dürrenstein or Strudelköpfen, on a clear day you can admire the imposing Three Peaks.
• Lake Braies: the most famous lake in the Alps
  It is one of the most beautiful lakes in the Dolomites and is an eye-catcher in every season. We recommend going to Lake Braies during off-peak periods so that you can admire this corner of the earth in peace and quiet.
