The login controller is like this:

And the page I'm trying to redirect to is the register.html and the controller for that looks as below:

You can organize controllers and navigation this way:

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/index")
public class IndexController {

    @GetMapping()
    public String get(Model model) {
        return "index";
    }
...

}

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/account")
public class AccountController {

    @GetMapping()
    public String get(Model model) {
        return "account";
    }
...

}

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/register")
public class RegisterController {

    @GetMapping()
    public String get(Model model) {
        return "register";
    }
...

}
