    The Engelrast viewing platform on the Puflatsch offers a breathtaking 360° panoramic view of the Seiser Alm, the Val Gardena and the Dolomites. The platform is surrounded by a metal plate, which provides a detailed description of the fantastic mountain panorama of the Seiser Alm, Europe's largest high mountain pasture with the Sciliar, Plattkofel and Sassolungo, as well as the surrounding mountain ranges. You find out which mountains you can see in which direction and how high the peaks are. A nice detail of this platform is the little angel that towers over this viewpoint.

      Puflatsch (emphasis on the second syllable, Ladin Bulacia, Italian Bullacia) is the name of a survey on the northwestern edge of the Alpe di Siusi in the South Tyrolean Dolomites. There is a good vantage point, accordingly popular is the hill as a hiking destination and in winter for two ski runs. The easiest way to reach us is Puflatsch from Kompatsch, where the road and the cable car end at the Alpe di Siusi. From there, in addition to hiking trails, a chairlift leads to the southern edge of the plateau. From the north and the hamlet of Pufels you reach the hill over the Schnürlsteig. On the northern edge of Puflatsch, near the highest point at 2176 m, are the so-called witches' benches. (Wiki)

        Good view over the Alps at 360 °. Very good visualization of the peaks in a lying walk-in steel structure.
