The start is from the free parking lot at the church in Völlan. Shortly after leaving the village, turn right across the meadow to the beginning of the forest. Follow trail no. 12. After that, there's a short, steep climb, but then it's a long one. There's hardly any chance of getting lost. At the end, you'll be rewarded with …

The circular hike to the Knottnkino begins at the Grüner Baum inn in Vöran. The Schützenbründlweg No. 14 to the Weberhof and uphill to the Knottnkino on the porohyrrot Rotsteinkogel with an exposed view. Path No. 12 takes us back across meadows and farms.
Highly recommended if you have good vision.

On the way back, it was partly on asphalt and forest paths to the Eggerhof. We had a cheap meal there and enjoyed the sun on the …

March 17, 2024,Wanderung Knottenkino von Vöran, Südtirol

Arrival day for a short vacation in Merano. The well-known Knottenkino is just right for a half-day hike. The cable car took us from Burgstall, a very steep climb of around 900 m to Vöran. From there we went on a short walk to the Knottenkino. Great view from up there. Unfortunately I only had diffuse sun and it was …
