Dall'Alpe di Rodengo alla Cima Lasta
We go by car from Rio Pusteria/Mühlbach, located in Val Pusteria/Pustertal, to the parking in Nanders zum Zumis (1725 mt.). Here we follow the huts/tablelands' road, we turn left on the "Cofinweg" and we cross the wood and the plain fields towards Rifugio Roner (1832 mt.; refreshment available; ¾ an hour).
Fottpath number 2 proceeds eastwards along a light ascent across the wood till the Pianer Wegkreuz (1901 mt.) and then reaches the Rifugio Rastner (1931 mt.), and, after the crossing of some fields, Rifugio Campoforte/Starkenfeld (1936 mt.; 1 hour from Rifugio Roner).
Now a hut road brings us to a light hollow nearby Malga Lasta/Astalm and then arrives at a road fork: here we go right and up to footpath.67, which begins on the left of the ridge and goes eastwards over the steep wood till the Cima Lasta/Astjoch top's cross (2194 mt.; about 1 hour far from Rifugio Campoforte/Starkenfeld).
Here we enjoy a beautiful view, then we go down on the southern side of the mount till the Rifugio Prato Croce/Kreuzwiesenhütte (1924 mt.) Now we cover footpath number 2 across the marvellous fields till the Raffreid Alm and Malga Sasso/Steineralm (1 hour). After a while we return to the hollow of Malga Lasta/Astalm, from where we can return to the starting-point outstripping Campoforte/Starkenfeld and Rifugio Roner (1 hour and ½).
Useful advice: easy but long hike that covers mainly some flat pastures located in the beautiful expanses of Rodengo/Rodeneck and Luson/Lüsen; the only exacting stretch is the cross of spectacular Cima Lasta/Astjoch.
