Vila di Sopra - Pyramidenweg - Pyramids of Plata

Once in Perca from the state road that connects Brunico to Valdaora, turn left towards Vila di Sopra (Oberwielenbach). After the village, continue on Via Plata to the P2 car park (Parkplatz Erdpyramiden, fixed rate 4 € from 08.00-17.00). From here begins the thematic path called Pyramidenweg which goes through the …

A very nice tour. It was a steep climb at the beginning, but there was a lot to see.
Great for kids.
Then, when we reached the sand pyramids, the view was simply fantastic.

On the way back from Lake Braies we made a stop and looked at the earth pyramids at Percha.

A fantastic work of nature!

Also suitable for children, who can find out more about the Earth Pyramids on the Earth Pyramids Adventure Trail.

Parking: Day ticket: €4, €2 from 1 p.m.

Many thanks to @🇺🇦Schlofwandler🕊️ for showing... 👍🏻.

These earth pyramids are something special and should definitely be seen.
Unfortunately, the planned circular route was not possible because one of the paths was closed. So it went back the same way.

Parked right by the pay car park on the road from Perca and into the forest on a nice trail to the Perca earth pyramids.
Beautifully laid out, suitable for families and worth seeing.

Earth pyramids... for us a spectacular sight, unique... especially how the stones sit like a crown on the earth pyramids👍

For the way back we decided to take the same route back through the beautiful forest instead of walking in the blazing sun on the paved path/road

We skipped the pyramid circuit 😉

As a prelude to our Dolimiten holiday this year, a short detour in the Stubertal to the earth pyramids near Platten.
