    Hiking

    An approximately 11 km long circular trail shows the beauty of the Steinfurt Bagnos. However, there are other options available for hiking.

    🏰 The tower ruin on the island of ruins is one of the most mysterious and photogenic relics in the Steinfurt Bagno. It is a perfect example of 18th-century garden design, in which artificial ruins were very popular as romantic mood elements ("faux pavilions").

    🏝️ The Ruins Island

    The tower ruins stand on one of the artificial islands in Lake Bagno.

    Symbolism: The islands in Bagno were often dedicated to specific themes (such as Arion Island to music). The Ruins Island was intended to represent the "venerableness of antiquity."

    Accessibility: Today, unlike Arion Island, the Ruins Island is not accessible by bridge. The tower ruins can only be admired from the shore of Lake Bagno. The best views are from the western and southern shore paths.
