The Lasnitzen is a high valley in the Lasörling group south of the Virgental in East Tyrol , Austria .

The word also denotes the stream that flows through this valley. In maps this brook is called Lasnitzenbach, the valley can also be called Lasnitzental.

The area is located in the municipality of Prägraten am Großvenediger . It runs from south to north and flows into the Virgen Valley with a steep drop.

The stream rises on the mountain ridge between Stampfleskopf and Lasörling and flows into the Isel between Ströden and Hinterbichl , which flows through the Virgental. It is a torrent with a steep gradient that overcomes the steep slope of the terrain in a pathless, steep V valley .

The Lasnitzenalm with the Lasnitzenhütte is located on the upper reaches of the Lasnitzenbach. This mountain hut is 1887 m above sea level . It can be reached via a path in about 2 hours from Prägraten and is the starting point for mountain tours and hikes in the area, such as the Lasörlinghütte or the Reichenberger Hütte .

From the Lasnitzen to the west, the Micheltal leads to the Micheltalscharte.

Names

The place names of the area contain evidence of the history of the settlement: there are names with Slavic roots and German names.

The Lasörling with the shape reminiscent of a ploughshare .

The name Lasnitzen (and its spelling variants such as Laßnitz etc.) comes from Slavic (originally eg "Lieznica", "Luosniza") and means a stream that comes from a forest or a cleared area (meadow, meadow, etc.) , e.g. B. translated as "Waldbach". In linguistics, a derivation from * loNč'nica “Wiesenbach” is discussed for Laßnitz (from the year 890: Luonzniza) , as a further possibility (from the year 1345: Lesniz, Laßnitz near Murau or in 1080 in the Paltental Laznich) * laz 'nica "Gereutbach" or "Rodebach". The derivation from * laz / 6nica , to lazъ, "clearing, clearing, clear place in the forest" also contains a reference to the course of the stream in a cleared area.

Lasnitzen (center) is located at Lasörling south of the Virgental in East Tyrol.

The name of the Micheltal comes from the word "michel". This word is an old word for "big, strong" and evidence of German-speaking settlement. It has nothing to do with the first name Michael, but is related to the Latin "magnus", Greek "mega-".
