Along the way, 14 stations with various texts from the Bible and matching relief carvings invite you to pause for a moment. Both the Lordesstöckl on the way to the forest chapel and the clear fountain at the 9th station of the contemplation trail are always popular with visitors and locals alike.
The history of the forest chapel is interesting: the church, which is almost entirely made of wood, was built around 1917, as the parish church in Sesto was badly damaged during the First World War. For 14 days, the farmers and the priest at the time worked on the church from early in the morning until nightfall. The wood for this came from a hay barn that had been crushed by the snow. In 1917 and 1918, every church service was celebrated there and, especially during the fascist era, the forest chapel served as a hiding place to hold masses in German. Today, the chapel is also known as the Peace Chapel and was restored in 1974. In 1988, at the suggestion of the then parish priest Markus Küer and in collaboration with the Sesto woodcarver Georg Lanzinger, a path of reflection was laid out to the chapel. Near the chapel there are cup stones, which are among the oldest traces of settlement in Sesto and are also the last of the biblical stations along the path of reflection.
The path starts at the base of the castle hill opposite the parish church of Mareit/Mareta, leads north facing to untouched forest territories near the creek of Mareit and ends west of the castle at its pond. On this path have been set up different natural “stations”, where the visitors – especially interesting for children – can get in touch with nature. From the brookside to bar, forest and meadows, water and mossy soils, from the ant hill to small ponds, the forest telephone and a pavilion made of different wood types – various adventure-worlds are available. Get in contact with nature on soft mossy soil! Experience nature up close, with all your senses!
A comfortable walk through the middle of the fruit trees. Recommended in the heyday, when the orchards are blooming. Suitable walk for babies/kids and strollers. Also practical on bad weather days.
Lake Carezza (Karer See | Lago di Carezza) in the Eggental Valley is famous for its extraordinary colors and is therefore also called “Lec de Ergobando” – the Rainbow Lake. Measuring around 300 meters in length and 140 meters in width, it is one of South Tyrol’s most renowned natural gems. The lake is fed by underground springs from the Latemar massif, which causes its size and depth to vary greatly depending on the season and weather conditions.
The medium circular route starts at Lake Carezza, crosses the suspension bridge towards the holiday settlement, and then continues through an idyllic forest area back to the starting point at the lake. In addition to Lake Carezza itself, the suspension bridge, built in 2018 as a connection to the Karersee | Carezza settlement, is another special highlight for visitors.
As a protected natural monument, Lake Carezza deserves special respect. It is important to observe the designated protection boundaries so that the beauty of this unique mountain lake can be preserved for future generations.

Off we go to the special forest animals on the Ritten...
From the Oberbozen train station we follow the small signs with the Pyramix. This awaits us at the start of the children's trail at the edge of the forest above Oberbozen and will tell us a lot about the wild animals. We can already see the first colored spots shining through the trees. I wonder what that could be? ...It's Fiona, the clever fox. She has found a great place for her den here in the forest.
The path leads us on to Ivo, a prickly companion who is mainly found foraging at night. Well, which animal is that?
Again and again we pass various forest and meadow dwellers. Whether it's Walter the hard-working great spotted woodpecker, who hammers a cave into the tree for his chicks with his pointed beak, or Sissi, the busy squirrel, who gathers her supplies for the winter in summer.
At each of these stations, children will find great play opportunities that teach them about the characteristics of the animals in a playful way and, of course, there is also a description of the wild animal with its special characteristics.
Breathing in healthy forest air and fun for young and old are guaranteed.
