Starting point: Seis (1.004 mt.) Duration: 2:00 Difference in elevation: 207 m Difficulty rating: easy Cover footpath 1-8 to go across a wood from Seis (1.004 mt.) to Waldrast Hotel. On good paths arrive at the road which goes to Bad Ratzes, a location with a centuries-old fame as therapeutic bath. Nobles and diplomats of many countries loved to spend here their holidays. Behind the hotel go over the Frötschbach to reach footpath number 3. The forest road is initially ascending, but then proceeds plainly. Here theres a fantastic view of the Schlern. Behind the bucks crib proceed on the footpath that goes to Hauenstein ruins (1201 mt.). Here lived many centuries ago the famous knight and poet Oswald von Wolkenstein and his family (about 1 hour from Seis). Now follow footpath number 3, which crosses a wood and arrives at Castle Salegg ruins (1120 mt.). The lords of Salegg probably were native to Kastelruth. Their historic tracks date back to 12th century. Unfortunately only some ruins remain of the ancient castle, but some walls suggest that it should have been restructured already in 16th century. From the Salegg Hotel go back on footpath number 3 b to cross the wood and arrive at Seis.
