Grande Guerra: da Malga Grassi al Rifugio Pernici

Great War: Hike from Malga Grassi to Rifugio Pernici

A classic itinerary in Garda Trentino, ideal for those seeking an easy hike with breathtaking views. This route leads to Rifugio Nino Pernici, located on the ridge between Garda and Valle di Ledro, a popular destination for hikers and bikers.

The refuge is renowned for its cuisine, especially the potato polenta, a typical dish of Valle di Ledro. During the Great War, the Bocca di Trat area was a strategic point of the Austrian defensive line. The building that now houses the refuge was then used as an officers’ mess.

Points of interest:

• Rifugio Nino Pernici: Excellent cuisine and panoramic viewpoint.
• Malga Dosso de’ Fiori: Historical ruins.
• San Martino archaeological site: Ancient place of worship (along the road to Malga Grassi).

Tips: Before leaving, check the opening of the refuge. Along the road to Malga Grassi, stop at the archaeological site of San Martino.
