B&B La Teresa

The three rooms are named after colours. Gialla (yellow) is designed for families, with a double bed and a bunk bed. Arancio (orange) is a double with a private terrace, where a cot can be added. Pesca (peach) is the double with private bathroom and terrace: for Gialla and Arancio the page does not say what the bathroom arrangement is, and it is one of the things to ask when booking.

The rooms are part of a single flat, with a shared lounge and kitchen, washing machine and wi-fi. The page publishes per-person rates for high and low season, with a reduced price for children aged 5 to 10 and a single-room rate; it does not describe breakfast, nor say whether it is included or where it is served.

The Quattro Cime restaurant and pizzeria opened in June 1982 and belongs to the Quistini family, who write on their website that they follow Bergamo and Italian cooking with ingredients sourced locally where possible. It is at number 491 on via Fezzoli, about ten metres from the B&B as the crow flies: for guests of La Teresa it is the nearest place to eat.

On its activities page the restaurant recommends the walks of the basin, from the Rifugio Capanna 2000 to Monte Alben, Cima di Menna, Monte Grem and the Sentiero dei Fiori, the mountain-bike routes of Val Serina, the Monte Alben Adventure Park, the Fattoria Ariete farm in Gorno, in Val del Riso, the Becco viewing platform and the Ponte nel Sole bridge in Dossena, the Zorzone Mineral Museum and QC Terme San Pellegrino.

Parking is free and unrestricted, wi-fi covers the house and the lounge kitchen is shared by the three rooms, as is the washing machine. The page mentions a playground and two restaurants close by.

The page says nothing about pets, arrival and departure times or breakfast: these are the questions to ask on the phone before confirming.

Via Fezzoli is the street in Zambla Alta that is also home to the Neve restaurant and the Tiraboschi grocery and bakery. You can drive right up to the B&B and park on site.

Without a car, take Bergamo Trasporti bus line B from Bergamo, with a compulsory change at Zogno and services Monday to Saturday only: the Zambla Alta Albergo Miramonti stop is about 260 metres away as the crow flies, based on its position on OpenStreetMap.

As the crow flies the Neve restaurant is about 165 metres away, the Tiraboschi bakery and grocery under 200, the Miramonti restaurant 270, the Piccola Parigi bar at Camping Zambla about 370 and the Edo Sport shop, which rents skis, snowshoes and mountain bikes, about 465. The Colle di Zambla is about 830 metres away, the start of the cross-country ski trail and the Monte Alben Adventure Park about a kilometre.

The Quattro Cime restaurant points out that to reach the Capanna 2000 you drive as far as Plassa in winter and up to the car park at 1,600 metres in summer, from where CAI path 221 reaches the hut in under an hour; the Alpe Arera car park is about 2.6 kilometres away as the crow flies. For cross-country skiing it mentions two equipped access points, at the Colle di Zambla and at Pian della Palla, and a floodlit loop from Zambla Alta to the Crocetta for skiing in the evening.

The B&B's page gives the mobile 348 5687960 and the address info@lateresa.it, and has a contact form; the same mobile appears among the restaurant's contacts, together with the landline 0345 95196. The landline is the number published by the Pro Loco, while the municipality's accommodation list gives the B&B the mobile 389 9998039.

The B&B's page does not give the identification codes: the CIR 016146-BEB-00001 and the CIN IT016146C1H2RCH74I come from the Lombardy Region tourism portal.
