Mountain hikes in the Dolomites

Alpine tours in Luson

The demanding mountain hikes and tours to the peaks around Lüsen are found primarily in the nature park Puez-Geisler and in the Dolomites. Adventure-packed summit hikes, some with via ferratas and tours around mountain groups, are the ideal destinations for experienced climbers.

The summit tour to the Sass Putia (2,875 m), the landmark of Lüsen, is highly recommended. It is one of the most magnificent view points in the Dolomites. The short and easy via ferrata at the last altitude meters to the summit is secured with wire ropes and therefore a special summit adventure for families. Odle di Eores, Monte Fana, the summit of Plose and Monte Muro, as well as the Herrensteig and the via ferrata Günther-Messner are further worthwhile mountain hikes in Lüsen and the Dolomites.

The steep itinerary Günther-Messner

This itinerary is dedicated to the mountaineer Günther Messner from Villnöss, who died on the Nanga Parbat.

Duration:

7 h

Length:

16 km

Difference in height uphill:

1240 m

Path number:

This difficult and long itinerary requires alpine experience, practice and a good head for heights as well as good weather. We start from the parking lot Russikreuz (1729m), where we follow the itinerary as described to the mount Tullen. At the bifurcation to the peak of the Tullen we turn right in eastern direction. After passing a rocky groove we walk upwards to the crest and afterwards to the rocky northern slope on steady plates (the most challenging part) until we reach a wind gap. From here we turn right to the peak Wälsche-Ring (2646m). Now we hike in the crest area and down the southern slope in eastern direction following the path until we reach a short ladder. On the northern part we get to the eastern grass slope. Descending in north-eastern direction we reach the path Peitlerscharten-Steig, from where we get to the wind gap (2357 m) In the ditch of the wind gap, next to the treeline, we find a deviation to the left on which we walk along in western direction, passing the meadows Kofelwiesen and the woods. Afterwards we get on the road Halsl-Strasse and finally to the parking lot Russiskreuz.
