Lasa

Lasa is particularly famous for its marble.

> Altitude: 868 metres above sea level

Maybe you too are among those who have already heard about this friendly village at the heart of the Val Venosta valley. Because this is the place, where the world-famous white marble of Lasa is won. All over the village you will see testimonies of this “white gold”, from the Roman apse of the local parish church to numerous other works of art. Where this kind of art is learnt? At a specialised local college.

Together with its hamlets of Allitz, Oris, Tanas and Cengles, the municipality of Lasa provides true recreation. Ranging from pretty hikes to the Punta Lasa summit at more than 3,000 m to stunning hang-gliding trips, here you will find numerous free time amenities. And those looking for peace and serenity may try out the so-called “Besinnungsweg”, the path of reflection…

> We suggest: a tour along the panoramic road near to Allitz and a visit to the tiny church dedicated to a saint called Sisinius!
