The Völser Weiher lake is nestled in the heart of the unique landscape of the Schlern-Rosengarten nature reserve, and has been designated a “Vela Blu” lake, testifying to the outstanding cleanliness of its waters, since 2017. It is a wonderful destination to take a dip on hot summer days, and also doubles up as an ice skating lake in winter: Whatever the season, this spot in the deep green forests at the foot of the Schlern never fails to offer visitors an idyllic experience.

This walk is pram-friendly.

Details

The easy loop route is suitable for young and old and also for children’s prams. The route begins at the Nature Reserve Information Point and leads past the banks of the lake, bordered in part by thick reeds.
