Details

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.

Important: Do not take the normal summer route via Croce Portera! Avalanche blasting.

After we have reached the clearly visible junction on the pass road, we put on the snowshoes.

We are in the middle of a fairytale forest, sometimes the snow-covered pine branches almost hang in our faces, sometimes small clearings open up. As soon as we leave the forest we roam through hilly, open terrain and soon we reach the highest point. We can already see our destination in the distance, the houses of Dötra. It now goes slightly downwards, always with a view of the Rheinwaldhorn.

We stop at the Grotto Dötra. We listen to the lively conversation in the Ticino dialect and treat ourselves to a Boccalino or a Tazzino Vino Rosso with a plate of dried meat.

Before the sun gets too low we make our way back and now we are happy about the beautiful trail that we laid ourselves. But if only we had drunk tea!

Tip: Since the Lukmanierpass cannot be reached by public transport in winter, a call bus is available upon request:

Sicherheitshinweis

The route is not signposted as a snowshoe tour and from the pass road the path is not marked as a summer hike. Print out your topo map or take your hiking map with you!

Ausrüstung

Safety equipment is not necessary (avalanche transceiver, shovel, probe)

Directions

The route is not signposted as a snowshoe tour and it does not run on the summer hiking trail to Alp Dötra. With packed snowshoes we hike from the restaurant Acquacalda about 5-10 minutes along the pass route downhill until we reach an unmarked junction on the left side of the road. A clearly visible alpine path leads us through the forest. As soon as we reach open terrain, we keep to the left in an arc and reach the highest point. Through a small valley we now descend in an easterly direction, we can already see the houses of Dötra. The way back is on the same route.

Important: Do not take the noral summer path via Croce Portera. Danger due to avalanche blasts.
