he Mountain Hut Tour and Vallesinella Waterfalls hike is one of the most beautiful and panoramic walks in Madonna di Campiglio, ideal for discovering the heart of the Brenta Dolomites in a simple, immersive and spectacular way. This loop itinerary combines alpine trails, historic mountain huts, Dolomite walls and scenic waterfalls in a unique natural setting.
The hike crosses some of the most iconic landscapes of the Brenta Group: the Tuckett Glacier, the remains of an ancient alpine glacier, the imposing walls of Crozzon di Brenta, the deep Canalone Neri, and the majestic peaks of Cima Brenta and Cima Tosa. The famous Vallesinella Waterfalls make the route even more evocative, rare and spectacular for their abundance of water in a Dolomite environment that is usually drier.
All of this comes with the chance to stop at Rifugio Brentei, in the heart of the Brenta, and fully experience the authentic atmosphere of the mountains.
