Foiana Panoramic Trail

The Foiana Panoramic Trail offers a breathtaking view of the Merano basin.

General description

The Foiana Panoramic Trail (partly also a narrow mountain path) offers a breathtaking view of the Merano basin. The route begins behind the old Nagelehof farm at the crossroads. Turning left, follow trail no. 4 past the Gruberhof and Tratterhof. At the first left-hand bend the panoramic trail forks right. The path then runs level through the trees to the first viewing point, known as Kitzerknott, and after a somewhat steep descent to the second point, Schöne Aussicht. The hike continues to trail no. 9 which leads steeply downhill. At the Steinweiherhof, turn right, and once past the sports ground you will return to your starting point.
