    The track here has stunning views across the lake to Pertisau and has some gentle ups and downs on the loop which are excellent for beginners to move up to, and skaters to practice without too much of an incline. The route runs north of the lake, passed the pool and   turns at the end of the meadow and from there, returns to the starting point.
