Description to arrive at destination

From Brenner use the Motorway to Ora - Egna - Termeno. From here, follow the signs until Termeno (around 4kilometers from the Motorway)

General description

Walking time: about 2.5 hours

Starting point: Town Hall Square. Via Schneckenthaler Straße to St. Anna Nursing Home. Immediately after, turn left following the sign "Hiking Trail Kastelaz" up to the forest road. This leads first slightly uphill and then gently downhill through sparse mixed forest for 3 km to the neighboring village of Kurtatsch. In 2024, 5 new play stations for children were built. Right at the beginning of the hiking trail, children can now whizz down a rapid slide. A few steps ahead, a wooden snake invites balancing. Followed by a swing, a climbing igloo, and at the rest area "Bödala," a cable car. Right at the first houses of Kurtatsch, we reach via the less traveled panoramic road above the Wine Road via Rungg back to Tramin. (Opportunities to stop for food in Kurtatsch and at the Hofschank zur Pergola in Rungg, closed on Wednesdays).

Shortdescription
The popular trail "Kastelazweg" has become an ideal destination for families thanks to the installation of 5 new pieces of play equipment.
Route description

From the Rathausplatz (main square) on the Schneckenthaler street up to St. Jakob. A quick detour to the beautiful Romanesque church of S. Giacomo is worth it. After viewing the centaurs, sciapods and other frescos, continue in a northerly direction. After a few metres the first signpost directs hikers to the Kastelazweg trail. The first few metres of the trail are steep, but soon the trail continues on a lovely, relatively flat forest road through pine and deciduous forest to Cortaccia/Kurtatsch. There are plenty of benches on the way offering beautiful views of Termeno/Tramin.

It is recommended to return on a paved panoramic road (hardly used by cars) via Ronchi/Rungg, the southernmost district of Termeno. There are a few refreshment stops along the way for thirsty hikers.

Those who already know the church of St Jakob may follow the Kastelazweg trail earlier by turning left off Schneckenthaler street after the St. Anna retirement home towards the forest.
