The History

From 1959 to 2026

A 60-year-long history​

“Baita del Sole” saw the light of day back in 1959, when the gondola lift linking Teglio and Prato Valentino, the first detachable chairlift in Europe, was under construction.

This facility allowed locals and holidaymakers to easily reach the ski destination, as well as the transport of goods for the inhabitants of the village.

Several managers followed over the years, until it came into the hands of Adriano in July 2011.

He simultaneously purchased and managed the ski facilities, so as to return to Prato Valentino its most peculiar element.

Adriano’s work ends today with Stefano acquiring the building: our commitment is to pay tribute to the tradition that has always featured “Baita del Sole”, but with a look also towards the future and modernity. Here and now, here is our new Chalet Baita del Sole.

Our mission

Have you ever heard of “hygge?” This Danish word means “to create a welcoming atmosphere and enjoy the beauty of life with loved ones”.

This is our mission.

The project “Chalet Baita del Sole” was born from the desire to bring back to life an environment until now neglected, creating an accommodation facility on the slopes of the Alpe di Teglio where tourists and skiers can find refreshment during their excursions.

But not only: our goal is to encourage customers to come and visit us without necessarily planning a trip, but just because of the pleasure of spending a dinner with the most loved ones.

The glow of fire is hygge, as well as making yourself comfortable and looking at the stars together with your loved one.

And there is nothing more hygge than sitting with friends and family chatting about the small and big things in life, perhaps in front of a plate of pizzoccheri and with a panoramic view of the entire valley.
