Martinsmadhütte is an Alpine hut located at 2,002 metres above sea level in the Glarus Alps, above Elm in the canton of Glarus, Switzerland. Built in 1907 and expanded in 1938, the hut is operated by the Randen section of the Swiss Alpine Club (SAC) and offers 48 beds during the summer season. It is an ideal starting point for hikes in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Tektonikarena Sardona. Access to the hut can be facilitated by using a small cable car up to the Nideren Alp, followed by a hiking trail. Facilities include a breakfast buffet, but there are no showers; a stream behind the hut offers an option for cooling off.
