About
Rifugio La Maralsina sits at 2,584m in the Brenta Dolomites, accessible from the Val di Non valley. Most hikers approach from Malga di Ritorto (about 2 hours) or from Carcoforo in the south (3.5 hours). Both routes are steep but well-marked. The hut serves as a junction point for ridge walks across the Brenta massif and access to peaks like Cima Tosa (2,092m).
The refuge accommodates 80 people in a mix of dormitory and private rooms. Dinner is a three-course meal with local Trentino specialties. Breakfast includes bread, cheese, and cured meats. The hut has hot showers (small charge) and a reliable water supply. It opens mid-June through September, depending on snow conditions. Late season (September) can mean restricted services. Check ahead if visiting before July or after August.
Book directly with the hut by phone or email at least 3 weeks ahead for July and August weekends. July and August are consistently busy; June and September are quieter. The hut manages its own bookings rather than using rifugi.net. Confirm your arrival date and any dietary requirements when you book. The staff speak Italian and basic English.
