Martello di Dentro

The head of the Val Martello is a place of incomparable natural beauty, where several mountain huts and hiking destinations are gathered. Livi Hut, Genziana Hut, Martello Hut and Nino Corsi Hut - all these mountain huts are located in this high alpine area, where ibex, chamois and marmots live. From Santa Maria alla Fonderia, the road leads uphill in hairpin bends to the hikers' car park at Lake Gioveretto. The glacier giants of the Ortles Alps are reflected in the water.

The lake is the starting point for the Plima Gorge Trail, which leads up to the Nino Corsi Hut. By the way, when pronouncing this hut in German, Zufallhütte, the emphasis is on the second syllable: Zufàllhütte. If you want to try a summit, Mount Dosso di Peder offers an easy ascent and a splendid panoramic view. The mountain tour to the Cima Rossa di Martello or to the glacier at Mt. Cevedale is more difficult, but both of them are worth the effort once you have reached the top.

In winter, the landscape in Martello di Dentro (Hintermartell) transforms into a paradise for cross-country skiers with the Martello Nordic Ski Centre, for snowshoe hikers and for ski tourers. At the waterfalls at the head of the valley and at the Konzentschatter Waterfall, on the other hand, ice climbers can be seen looking for a foothold on the slippery ground with crampons and ice axes.
