The mausoleum is a very impressive building. However, you can only look at it from the inside during a guided tour. Therefore call the tourist office in Schenna beforehand. The last time it was always Tuesday

July 24, 2023,Regen auf allen Wegen

After a heavy thunderstorm, we didn't start our tour until midday today. Via the Sagenweg we went on the Maiser Waalweg in the direction of Meran and via the Mitterplattweg back to Schenna.
It rained again and again during the hike.

July 1, 2022,Wanderung auf dem Waalweg über Schenna

Tour continued from Wallweg, past the waterfall, always along the wall (artificial moat). Until then shortly before Schenna in serpentines in a shady forest location uphill. Schenna is a very nice place with good rest stops and sights such as the castle, the church and beautiful houses. Then we went to and between the vineyards back to Obermais Meran.

April 22, 2024,Über den Maiser Waalweg nach Schenna

From our Hotel Adria 🏨 in Merano (advertising 😉) we went straight to Schenna today via the Maiser Waalweg and Thurn Castle 🏰.

A wonderfully relaxed hike through blooming apple growing areas 🍏 and past the vines that are just starting to sprout 🍇

A very nice round around Schenna on the Maiser Waalweg. This path can also be walked well in summer, as the ascent back to Schenna is in the shade. You can reward yourself for the ascent with a visit to Anny's ice cream parlor 😊
