At the bottom of the Monte Luco (Laugenspitze) lies our same-named B&B with Café, Pastry Shop & Pizzeria. Here, on the high plateau of Alta Val di Non (Deutschnonsberg), amid thick woods and lush green meadows, we are exactly at the “hidden” frontier between the German-speaking South Tyrol and the Italian-speaking Trentino.
We’ve been running our small B&B for three generations now.
Whether passionate motorcyclists, eager hikers or enthusiastic bikers - our B&B is the ideal starting point for many outdoor activities & the perfect place to rest and relax for everyone who’s travelling through! Who wants to unwind can also enjoy some peace and tranquility on our large sun terrace.
Are you ready for your next holiday? We are happy to welcome you!

In the middle of deeply snow-covered forests, stress-free hikes far away from the hustle and bustle are a pleasure. Numerous snowshoe routes can be found in the Maddalene mountain range and from the Gampen Pass. Authentic nature experiences and hikes around the Laugen are also possible in winter. There are also numerous routes for enthusiastic ski tourers.
The snow and adventure park for children is located in the village centre of Unsere Liebe Frau im Walde. On the practice and fun area the little ones enjoy themselves on the toboggan, the skis or with the bob. The 110 meter long magic carpet of mascot Ulfi brings its guests back to the starting point of the easy descents on the hill.
