Mountain tour from San Martino to the Cima San Cassiano

This challenging mountain tour impresses with breathtaking views in the Sarentino Alps

The starting point of our alpine hike is the car park at the valley station of the cable car in Reinswald or San Martino (1,570 m a.s.l.). We first hike on trail no. 7 "Plankenhorn-Getrum" via a meadow and forest path to the Getrum Hut (2,094 m). Here we are at the timberline and continue our way to the crossroads of the Lücklpass, from where we hike straight on along trail no. 8b.

The landscape is now rockier and we turn right at the next junction onto trail no. 8 and then onto trail no. 9. Soon we reach the Cima di San Cassiano (Kassianspitze, 2,581 m). From here we enjoy a magnificent view on the surrounding peaks of the Sarentino Alps. After a short break, we start our way back on trail no. 9. We pass the beautiful San Cassiano Lake and descend to the Croce di Lazfons Hut: Here we stop for our lunch break.

We then continue our tour on trail no. 7 to the 2,376 m high Lücklpass, which we cross and then hike downhill again to the Getrum Mountain Hut. Here we take the Urlesteig trail (no. 11), which leads us at an almost constant altitude, past the Chrust-Gepatsch mountain inn and then via the so-called Almstrasse, past the Sunnolm, back down to the starting point.
