Pupils of the 4th and 5th grade worked on that, they recorded and treated all of the sagas.

The 2 km long circular trail along the Forchwaldegg (trail no. 8) in Trodena proved to be a perfect spot for the Trail of Legends. It is set amidst larch, pine and spruce trees and is very easy to hike.

Due to its isolated position, Trodena still retained many testimonies of what men have conceived, built and transformed here over the centuries. On the circular route of Trodena we will learn about the centuries-old urban culture. From the town square we move towards the upper part of the town, pass in front of a 700-year-old lime tree and walk along the paved road up to the entrance to the town. From there we follow trail marker 3 to a parking lot. From the panoramic road (3A) we come to a viewing platform, a sort of balcony. from which we can admire the "3 horns": Corno Nero, Corno Bianco and Monte Corno. This is where the geological "line" of Trodena develops. The view over the roofs of Trodena testifies to the division of the farms that has taken place for generations. We then walk until we reach the Via Cislon. From here we follow trail no. 1 to return to the starting point of Trodena, which we will reach through the historic center.

Behold – be at one – be amazed

With these words, we welcome all visitors to the Creation Trail on the Rodengo and Luson Alps.

When the religious man turns his eyes to creation, he comes closer to the mysteries of God, of man and of nature, and senses intuitively that by living in communion with God, mankind and nature blossom.

The Creation Trail invites visitors from near and far to wonder at the magic of the surrounding landscape, moulded through mankind over the centuries to bestow upon it the form that we see today.

Among artists and art lovers, the perception of religious motif and the language they speak are perhaps their greatest source of inspiration. The highest form of artistic expression is giving voice to the unvoiced.

When following the trail, each visitor can behold, be at one and be amazed in their own personal way, and hear the message that unites us all.

The 3D trail Entiklar - Margreid -Kurtinig is an easy walk which can also be done with a baby carriage.
