U-See has the nicer circular route, Kalterersee the more interesting surrounding area 😎

September 8, 2023,Rundweg Kalterer See

Whoever planned and promoted this lake circuit should be ashamed of themselves. The path does not lead along the lake at practically any point during the two-hour hike; you mostly walk through the high apple orchards, which is boring in the long run, sometimes through a nature-protected shore area on a wooden footbridge through bushes, along it for a long …

September 8, 2021,Umrundung des Kalterer Sees

We started our vacation in South Tyrol by going around the beautiful Lake Kaltern.

The first large section of the route leads along paved paths, but through beautiful wine and apple orchards. You can also take a look at the lake again and again.

This time we started at the Biotop car park (free of charge).

Shortly before the wine route, we turned right onto the field path and then along the wine route to the St. Josef church, where we took the agricultural path on the right to the large car park by the lake.

April 7, 2025,Frühling in Südtirol - „Rund um den Kalterer See“ (unser Klassiker) 🤩

We've been in South Tyrol for a week now, and we haven't yet done our classic route - the loop around Lake Kaltern.

We realized this today and included the loop in our daily schedule.

We started again at the Biotop parking lot (free of charge).

June 30, 2025,Kalterer See / Lago di Caldaro – Biotop Runde von Winkel

A hike around the lake is okay during cooler weather. Unfortunately, the lake is rarely visible. The hike often runs right next to or on roads. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this hike.

Lakeside path ????

Unfortunately we didn't see much of the water on THIS lakeside path.

There was a place where we could look out over Lake Kaltern from the road. We didn't really find any access to the water to relax.....
