Lake Kaltern contains the largest preserved wetland area between the Po Valley and the main Alpine ridge, which was also included in the European network of "Natura 2002" protected areas. The reed area at the south end of Lake Caldaro is a nature reserve. It is a nesting place for countless and rare birds as well as marsh animals. Scientists have found more than 100 species of birds here. There are, for example, water pipit, reed bunting, bittern, reed warbler, wryneck, Ortolan, linnet, yellow wagtail, long-tailed warbler, tern, black-headed gull, water rail, marsh harrier, hoopoe, tree hawk and many others. This reed area is the only larger habitat of this species between the Reschenpass and Verona and lies at the fork of the main bird flight lines. This is why fish and purple herons, ruffs, snipe, lapwings, black swans, osprey, cranes, cormorants and white storks appear again and again. You can watch the animals from a lookout tower, where most of the birds are described. You can hike through the biotope and admire frogs and amphibians via the nature adventure trail. In the summer of 2010, the nature adventure trail on Lake Kaltern was expanded and extended. Especially recommended for families with children.

Gleno Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

Highly recommended bike tour over the old railway line of the Fleimstalbahn from Auer here to Kaltenbrunn. A steady slope of mild 6% allows a leisurely but steady climb. The route crosses the most beautiful orchards and offers a fantastic view to the west over the entire Adige Valley between Kaltern and Margreid. Several historical (automatically illuminated tunnels) are driven through and several bold arched bridge structures are crossed, which, in the entirety of the steady, even incline, simply turns one's hat off to the engineering skills of railway construction in 1916.

Here the cycle path changes sides of the river and you have to share the bridge with cars.
