Laabalm/ Malga Laab near Deutschnofen/Nova Ponente

Malga Laab, situated at 1649m above the sea level, is a kind of small no thrills little place very popular with the locals, therefore an excellent choice if you want to experience the real South Tyrol.
From where we park it takes us usually about 45 minutes (1.5 km long, the difference in the altitude is 200m) to get to the malga. We have our hot tea with cakes, after which we borrow their sledges to go down the slope. It is about 15 minute long exhilarating ride back to the car park.






How to get there:

By car from Trento take the A22 towards Bozen/ Bolzano. Take the exit at Egna/ Neumarkt/ Ora/ Auer/ Cavalese and follow the indications for Deutschnofen/ Nova Ponente.

We follow the indications for Malga Laab and park near the woods at the DIY (it seems) car park called Buehlhof. Basically, when you get to Deutschnofen/Nova Ponente, turn left towards the ski lifts, pass them on your left and follow the road for about 1km until you get to the car park.

Duration: from half day to one day 

Level: easy path leading up to the Malga, although 45 minute walk can be long for some children. It's about 1.5km long.
Refreshments and toilet facilities: at Malga Laab
