After picking up the Corsa from the workshop, we went for a hike to the summits of Monte Piano and Monte Piana. These two peaks offer beautiful views of the Three Peaks (Drei Zinnen) and the Misurina valley. There was still quite a bit of snow up top, but the remains of the World War I open-air museum were still clearly visible. The view from up there was definitely awesome. According to the locals, this area is still relatively unknown to most tourists, so if anyone is planning to hike around the Three Peaks, this route is definitely worth checking out!
The road runs into the valley, snowy peaks ahead – the Corsa is back on the road.
