View of Monte Luco

Highlight • Viewpoint

You turn the corner and suddenly you see the Laugen in front of you. The summit is still hidden, however, because you only see it in the last few meters.

Alpine Meadows at the Foot of Monte Lucco

Highlight • Natural

At the foot of the Laugen you walk across lush alpine meadows. Cows lie in the grass to the left and right. What peace, idyll and wonderful scenery.

Laugen peak (2434 m)
The Laugen is located in the outermost Ulten Valley and flanks the southern side of the Ulten Mountains (mountain range of the Maddalene - Ilmenkamm). Different ways lead to leaching; be it from the Ulten Valley side starting at St. Pankraz, as well as from the Deutschnonsberg side, from the Gampenpass, the village of Our Lady in the Forest or from the Aler Alm near Proveis.

Malga Castrin

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Follow the markings to Malga Castrin, which is easy to reach from the Hofmahd car park in 30-40 minutes. There you can get homemade cheese and bacon to take away and all kinds of typical dishes (hot and cold). There is a large playground for kids.
