The Three Castles Hike in Eppan

The starting and finishing point of the hike is Korb Castle. At the beginning of the hike, you stay on an asphalt path. Always follow the trail marker 12, the Burgenweg, through orchards and vineyards. Via a small path, the trail finally leads upwards in serpentines to the chalk tower, which is located 50 metres below Hocheppan Castle and used to be the castle's defence tower.

The castle itself is particularly distinguished by its striking, pentagonal shape. After a break in the Hofschenke, the journey back in time to the High Middle Ages continues and you hike to the next castle, the Boymont castle ruins.

Follow marker 14 through a forest up to the castle. Here, too, a courtyard tavern
