Hiking

The chalk tower was part of Hocheppan Castle, a defense and observation tower that secured the eastern access routes. Later it was used to light beacons. These fires were called chalk fire, derived from the term "chalk" for warning: This can also explain the origin of today's name chalk tower.

The square tower was built after all references to the end of the 12th or the beginning of the 13th century, and was later probably used to light beacons. suedtirol.info
