Itinerary

We walk up to the church of Sesto (it is worth a visit the cementery). We pass the church follow the Lanerweg (a left after the church) and by the Laner farm begins the path nr. 5 later nr. 4 to San Candido. We cross beautiful flower meadows, pass by a few farms and reach the wood. The way is very quiet, deserted and very easy to go. Arrived at San Candido it is a must to visit the church of the 9th century. Going back by bus or walk is up to you, also long the river down the valley.
It is a very good half-day-excursion with the possibility to do some shopping
