From the square in Mattarello, a suburb of Trento that can be reached by bus, proceed south along the via Salita ai Dossi. At the end of the road are the remains of the lower battery. Continuing along the dirt road, the upper battery is also reached in a few minutes. Returning slightly back to the road, one ascends an unnumbered path to the main Mattarello work. From here, in a few minutes, path no. 447 leads to the cave work into which the fort's armoured domes were moved in 1915. The entrances are located on the right shortly after the fork with the signpost Malghetta. The return to Mattarello is via an easy asphalted road. 

The first sector of the fortress included the village of Mattarello and went up near the hamlet of Valsorda.
