Directions: Drive to the free parking lot at Kircheben, above Mölten, which is about a 45-minute drive from Meran. The gently ascending forest path No. 15 starts directly at the parking lot and leads to the rustic "Sattler Hütte" (1,604 m). From there, continue along the forest road to the "Möltner Kaser" (1,806 m). From this point, the trail takes you up to the next hill and further to the summit cross of the "Stoanernen Mandln" (2,000 m). The return journey follows the alpine meadows of the beautiful Möltner Joch, with a unique view of the Dolomites.

Take the cable car (free with the South Tyrol Guest Pass) from Burgstall to Vöran. Start in Vöran at the mountain station of the cable car, following trail No. 1 and No. 12 towards "Hafling". At Eggerhof, turn right to reach the Knottnkino, offering views of the entire Etschtal. Return to the Weberhof, then continue on the Schützenbründlweg. Stop for a break at the restaurant, café “Das Stübele” (closed on Mondays). Follow trail No. 14 back towards the Gasthof Grüner Baum, then follow the markings back to the starting point in Vöran village.
Good to know
The word "Knottn" in the South Tyrolean dialect refers to a rock block, boulder, or rocky hill. Millions of years ago, when the Tschögglberg was formed by lava and ash rain, these wine-red, rounded peaks were created.
