With a population of just 120 inhabitants, the sanctuary of San Martino in Monte is one of the most attractive localities in Val Venosta. At just a short distance from Laces, this hiking paradise is easily accessible by
cableway.
The climb from Laces to San Martin in Monte is one of the most exhilarating speed-hiking routes in Val Venosta. There are a number of well-frequented and relatively easy hiking routes that pass San Martino in Monte, such as the high altitude scenic trail along
Monte Sole running through San Martino in Silandro, capital of Val Venosta, via the "Egg" and "Forra" farms and then the fortresses of Annaberg and Schlandersberg. The San Martin in Monte high mountain plateau can also be crossed in winter thanks to its position on Monte Sole, where snowfall is rare.
