Ristorante-Pizzeria S. Leonardo In Badia

09/01/2026: After a tiring snowshoe hike, we wanted to try the canederli at the mountain hut without too many expectations. Instead, Malga Sella surprised us with incredibly delicious cannonballs, accompanied by fresh cabbage. Along with a good Forst, they welcomed us back to the world with more joy and satisfaction than before! The mountain hutkeepers were very quick and kind. The price was definitely fair, exceeding all expectations.

07/01/2026: While skiing the Sellaronda, on one of those bad days when fog accompanies you turn after turn, this mountain hut/refuge was a truly pleasant, almost providential discovery. Outside, visibility was limited and the damp cold was cold, but inside, there was genuine warmth, the scent of wood, a burning stove, and the authentic mountain air. The atmosphere is rustic and welcoming, without frills: shared tables invite you to sit together and spark spontaneous conversations with friendly people, all united by the same desire for a more alpine and authentic atmosphere, far from the glossy huts crowded with noisy and somewhat rowdy skiers. The food is excellent, simple but well-made, perfect for getting your legs moving and your spirits up. The beer pairs perfectly with everything, sipped slowly while the fog continues to roll in outside. Here, time seems to slow down, and that's just fine. The staff is extremely kind, smiling, and helpful, making you feel immediately at ease even if you enter cold and with fogged-up glasses. A refuge that doesn't try to impress, but succeeds precisely because of this: authentic, warm, and human. A stop that, from a simple shelter on a difficult day, has transformed into one of the most beautiful memories of the ski trip. In short, a place to return to, come fog or sunshine.
