    Hiking

    The short detour via the Powder Tower is worth it. Don't be put off by the seemingly impassable climb behind the obviously dilapidated house—the path is just a little overgrown.
    From the base of the tower, you have a truly beautiful view of the Schlern massif. Unfortunately, the tower itself isn't accessible.
    The bench by the tower, with its inscription, invites you to pause for a moment. The descent toward the castle is a wildly romantic path (in contrast to the ascent, it's well-maintained) under a protective canopy of leaves.

    The Powder Tower is a defensive structure built in the early 13th century. Unfortunately, the tower is currently closed due to renovations. From the base of the tower, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Sciliar massif.

    A lovely castle with a great view and interior.
    Tours currently €9, and a fantastic café garden.
