Marilleva 1400 - Malghetto di Almazzago

Safety information

Rules for mountain walks:

• The passability of routes in a mountain environment is closely linked to current conditions and therefore depends on natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. For this reason, get well informed about the route and its conditions before starting. You can do this by contacting the nearest Information Office to you;
• If you plan to reach a mountain hut or refuge, make sure they are open and if you intend to stay for eating or sleeping, call them in advance to book;
• Leave information about your route and always carry your mobile phone;
• In case of an accident, call 112;
• Never abandon waste at altitude and, if possible, avoid leaving it at the refuges or alpine pastures you visit;
• If you spot wild animals along the path, please stay on the trail you are following, do not approach them too closely, do not shout, and keep your dog on a leash to prevent it from instinctively chasing and frightening them.

Starting point

Directions

Starting from the second hairpin bend of the road descending towards Marilleva 1400, you cross a small valley until you reach a dirt road, first narrow for 300 meters and then widening, which you follow until you meet a provincial road. After carefully crossing the road, you take the path to Malghetto di Almazzago. Upon reaching the Daolasa-Val Mastellina cable car and the Malghetto di Mastellina located nearby at an altitude of 1384 meters, you continue on into the dense conifer woods and the silence reigning among the branches until you reach Malghetto di Almazzago. Here you can take a break to admire Val di Sole from a new perspective. For the return, follow the route in reverse.

You can reach this spectacular natural panoramic terrace starting from Malghetto di Mestriago, which is reached from the road to Marilleva 1400, then following the same route to Malghetto di Almazzago.
