Including the hamlets of Morter, Tarces, Coldrano and San Martino, the municipality of Laces lies right at the heart of the Val Venosta valleys. Near to it you will find the skiing area Malga Tarres, which in 2005 hosted the natural track luge championships.

Did you know that Laces is the place growing the highest rate of fruits per person? But it doesn’t stop here. Moreover Laces is also the municipality featuring the highest number of castles all over South Tyrol. There is for instance a fortress called Obermontani, where a manuscript of the legendary Song of the Nibelungs was found. Another important archeological finding is a 5,000 years old menhir.
