This hike takes you on the trail of the famous Schlern witches to the mystical witch's chairs. According to legend, the two rock chairs in the Tiosler Forest served as a resting place for the Schlern witches. Whether these are objects of prehistoric significance or simply a game of nature - we cannot say for sure. For the little ones, there is a children's playground at the Marinzen alpine pasture.
This hike can also be found in the family hiking book “Out and About with Nix the Witch”.
From Castelrotto, take trail no. 4 to the Tuschhof farmhouse, continuing on the paved road towards Wasserebene. Before reaching the sports field at Wasserebene, take trail no. 8, which climbs steeply up to the Witches' Chairs.
