Marteller Hütte

Marteller Hütte is a mountain refuge located at 2585 meters in the Ortler Alps, offering beds and hot meals to hikers crossing the high terrain. The structure sits along major trekking routes that climbers use to reach surrounding peaks and alpine passes.

The refuge was built in the early 1900s to provide shelter for climbers exploring the remote high mountain terrain. Since then it has supported countless expeditions across the surrounding alpine peaks.

The hut serves as a gathering place where hikers share meals and stories in a space built around mountain hospitality. Visitors experience the rhythm of Alpine life where shelter and food have always been central to survival at high elevations.

The refuge opens during warmer months from spring through fall and accepts only cash for payments. Advance reservations are highly recommended, especially during busy hiking season when beds fill up quickly.

The structure was built with thick wooden beams and reinforced construction to withstand extreme snowfall and harsh winds at high elevation. This solid design has allowed it to survive over a century of intense alpine conditions.
