St. Johann‘s meditational trail was established in 1996 by the local parish council and St. Johann‘s Schützenkompanie (protection guards). Its creation commemorated the 200th anniversary of the Sacred Heart of Jesus pledge that was sworn in 1796 and remains part of the local tradition today. Walkers are invited to stop at each station along the path to be informed by the contemplative texts and images.
The trail starts at the St. Johann/San Giovanni village church and leads through the woods and forests above the village. Walkers will enjoy diverse landscapes full of contrasts, from picturesque valleys winding between hills to abundant green meadows that lie at the feet of mountains that soar majestically above.
