Themed hikes Wasserwandersteig

From healing waters to mineral waters and the castle pond. Energy for the body and soul. Hike the trails of the “Tyrolean Sauerbrunn Spring”, where exciting stop-offs explain the meaning and different uses of the water. The Water Hiking Trail has been given new life with the addition of exciting attractions by the two artists Manfred Hellweger and Sandra Brugger. The ancient legends of Ladis already told of the mystical significance of water. A young man died in the “Pond of the Water Nymphs at Obladis” because he was so enchanted by the beauty of the queen of the water nymphs. “The last knight of Laudeck” drowned in the castle pond because he could not wait to be swept up in the arms of his beloved.

Description

At the start of the trail, a waterwheel (L007) shows you how people used to harness the power of water to run mills and sawmills. The trail continues over the “wave” and on to the “water curtain”. Next come the “water channels” and the newly designed “giant spring”. In the water loop, a “water drop” invites you to linger.
Listen to the melody of the water – depending on its mood, it plays cheerfully, thoughtfully or sadly, adapting perfectly to your own mood. The flowing stream is the accompanying orchestra, with millions of water droplets as its musicians. Passing the “Fanggaloch” of the tuff grotto, you reach the sulphur spring. The red colour of the stream does not come from sulphur, but from the high iron content – as a result, you can even smell the water here.
