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.

Beautiful lake, disappointing circular hiking trail. The lake is barely visible, there's a lot of asphalt, and no accessible shore or swimming areas. The only option is the outdoor pool (Lido).

With good reason, the Kaltern Lake District Hiking Trail is a must for anyone new to Kaltern! In just a short time, a stroll around the lake allows you to see at least once many of the things that define Kaltern: the lake with its biotope, the vineyards, the apple orchards, a castle, numerous church steeples, the Mendel Ridge, and …

A really beautiful circular route. Pleasant to walk, without any particular challenges.

October 9, 2022,Runde um den Kalterer See

This morning it rained in Passeier, so we headed to the South Tyrolean Unterland. It wasn't particularly beautiful here either, but as the day progressed the sun came out more and more and at 21 degrees we started to sweat quite a bit. Nice walk on easy paths.

April 3, 2024,Frühling in Südtirol 2024 - „Wanderung um den Kalterer See“

A large part of the bank (especially in the south) consists of protected reed and swamp landscape, the Kalterer See biotope, the largest preserved wetland between the Po Valley and the main Alpine ridge. This hike largely leads along asphalt roads, which are mostly closed to traffic and are very attractive due to their scenic surroundings.

May 24, 2024,Um den Kalterer See

Unfortunately, this tour wasn't that nice. It is mostly on asphalt roads. We encountered lots of cyclists and even cars and tractors. The paths that cyclists aren't allowed to ride on run right next to the road. The view of the lake is often blocked. We wouldn't do this tour a second time.
