    From the Filon dei Mot, the view opens onto one of the most spectacular landscapes in Alta Valtellina: before you rises the imposing Ortles massif, the highest peak in South Tyrol, flanked by the peaks of the Cevedale Group. To the right, the shimmering white of the Monte Cristallo glacier, descending toward the valley with its seracs and crevasses, can be seen.

      Here, during the First World War, Austrian and Italian troops dug ice tunnels into the glacier to conquer the mountain. In the course of the war, a system of ice tunnels and crevasses developed that extended up to ten kilometers.
