- Teglio and the Valtellina -
Teglio, in the heart of the Valtellina, positioned on a wide, sunny mountain terrace at 900m above sea level was historically the most important village in the valley which bears its name.
The town is not an anonymous mountain settlement, but has its own character, linked to its past which is easily visible in its narrow streets and neighbourhoods.
Thanks to its mild, dry climate, its tranquillity, natural beauty and the uncontaminated nature of its forests and meadows, the accounts of its lively past, the ski slopes of Prato Valentino and the sport fishing lake at Somasassa, Teglio is the ideal place for a holiday for all ages and in all seasons.Click here to download the map and further information on what to do in the area.
