San Martino - Rifugio Colverde

Access to starting point:
From Nova Gorica, we drive to Italy and continue on the highway to Portogruaro, where at the highway junction we turn in the direction of Belluno. We follow the highway to the exit for Belluno; after Belluno we follow the road in the direction of Feltre and then towards Transacqua and Passo Rolle. The ascending road then leads us through San Martino. From the sign which marks the end of San Martino we continue for approximately 1 km, and then on the left side of the road we will notice a smaller parking lot where we park.

Route description:
At the starting point, we will on the right side of the road notice a signpost, which points us right on a footpath towards the mountain pasture Malga Pala. The path quickly brings us into the forest through which it then for quite some time slightly ascends. Later, the path turns to the right and after a short ascent, it brings us to a marked junction.
Left leads the path towards the mountain pass Passo Rolle, and we continue right towards the mountain pasture Malga Pala. The path further crosses slopes towards the southeast and from the path nice views open up towards the settlement San Martino and surrounding peaks. After that, the path turns a little to the left and starts ascending a little steeper in zig-zags through the forest. Later, the path becomes slightly less steep and still runs through the forest. Such a path then a little before the mountain pasture brings us to a junction where from the right a path joins from a somewhat lower starting point in the settlement San Martino. From the junction then only a short ascent follows to the hut on the mountain pasture Malga Pala.
On the mountain pasture, we continue right on a gentle road which soon brings us to a ski slope. Here we continue slightly left and a short ascent follows to the hut Colverde where there is the station of a cable car.
