Oberolang Cemetery Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

The small chapel belongs to the “Cimitero di Valdaora” cemetery and is located directly on the cycle path. A great opportunity to visit the historic cemetery and enjoy the silence. The late Gothic parish church of the Assumption of Mary can be found in the town center of Oberolang.

Lake Valdaora (Olanger See)

Highlight • Lake

To the south of the reservoir, the gravel bike path runs along the shore. Boards, on which human rights are presented, accompany the way. This is introduced at the beginning with three boards and the words “Have children”.

Lake Valdaora

Highlight • Lake

The Olang Reservoir (also Welsberger Reservoir, Welsberger Lake or Olanger Lake, Italian Lago di Valdaora) is located in the upper Puster Valley in South Tyrol. It dams the Rienz River at a height of up to 1055 m and covers an area of up to 44 hectares. The reservoir is used to generate energy. In addition to the water from the reservoir, the associated Bruneck-Olang hydroelectric power station also uses catchments on the Rienz tributaries Antholzer Bach, Brunstbach, Furkelbach and Wielenbach.

Lago di Valdaora – Olang Reservoir

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Very nice developed path along the lake. Unfortunately, however, only on one side, i.e. on the opposite side there is no path for bicycles and pedestrians.

A beautiful, easy trail on the south side of the Olanger lake next to the forest. You can cross the lake on the west side over the dam.
