Cima Lavazzè - Description

It is a beautiful and scenic tour of the Maddalene mountain range, the orographic watershed between Trentino and Alto Adige. Its reasonable difficulties and slopes that are never too steep make it one of the most popular destinations, even though the side slopes of the wide valley above Malga Mazara (alpine dairy) need to be carefully tackled after recent snowfalls or when there are significant rises in temperature because of its southern exposure.

Directions

  • Start

    Masi Thal (Proves) - altitude 1473m

    From Masi Thal, take the forest road that leads to Malga Mazara (or Stierberg Alm - altitude 1850m), and then cross the stream and go westwards up the wide valley. When you get to a broad hollow at an altitude of 2300m (where you can find a small lake - Goldlahn See - in summer) and you can see the peak (on the left - to the south-west), you only need to tackle the last easy slope.
