Selva Secca Lukmanierpass
Route Information
Best Time of Year
Description
This tour is not part of the signposted snowshoe trail network. We are in open terrain where we have to assess the dangers ourselves.
We follow the tracks of snowmobiles and other snowshoers down to the stream and balance over the bridge over the Brenno, which flows gently and noiselessly. We remain very quiet through the loose pine forest that follows, because mountain hares also live here. The gnarled pine trees wear original snow hats - a wonderful photo subject. After a short while we step out of the forest and the Alpe Stabbia Nuovo lies in front of us. The high-voltage line only slightly spoils the natural experience and serves as a guide for us. We follow the hiking trail signs in a south-easterly direction so that we always have the wires on the left side, as this is the best way to find the entrance to Stèbia Vècc. Now we go down through the forest into a wildly romantic valley where a narrow bridge leads us over the stream. The landscape is varied, with open spaces and forest alternating. We take a break at the Rusticos in Pian Segno. In Acquacalda we keep to the right of the pass road and follow the hiking trail through the loose pine forest to Alpe Pozzetta and back to the parking lot in Casaccia.
Tip: Since the Lukmanier Pass cannot be reached by public transport in winter, a call bus is available upon request:
