Improvement of the Footpath Between Obermais and Meran by Private Initiative

Daily report.

Meran, 16 April. (Reader's submission.) Since, despite the visitors' tax in Meran, nothing had been done until last autumn for the comfort and convenience of visitors in Obermais, it is all the more useful to make known what private individuals have accomplished in this regard. — As late as last summer, as is well known, the footpath from Obermais to Meran via the upper bridge was stony, bumpy, and frequently wet. To tread safely, one had to keep one's eyes fixed on the ground and could never enjoy the beautiful landscape. — Finally, the friendly owner of Winkel, Mr Pitsch, took the benevolent decision to transform that footpath into a dry, very convenient one, while also constructing a well-sited road that ends at an open resting place offering a fine view. — With grateful remembrance, every stranger will now walk this path.
