Directions

Starting from the parking lot at Lake Carezza, the hike begins by crossing the suspension bridge, then turning right onto path [6], which leads to the Schönblickweg | Via Bellavista. Here, cross the road and follow a forest road into the woods. This path merges back onto path [6], leading over a wooden bridge to path [16]. The snowshoe hike continues up path [16] to the Frin meadows, where a marked winter path forms a small loop through the meadows. Afterward, you return to trail [16] and follow the same paths back to the starting point at Lake Carezza.
