The careful search for management methods that have little impact on the delicate ecosystem around us is constantly evolving. The renovation of Daniele’s grandparents’ old house was done in an attempt to adopt environmentally sustainable solutions.
Here are some examples: energy savings, thermal insulation of the building, geothermal heating system, controlled ventilation, earthing of reinforcing bars, wired internet to reduce magnetic waves, solar panels, reuse of stormwater for irrigation, lime-based plasters, and complete recovery of timber found on site.
The property offers solutions designed to ensure comfort and accessibility.
We are waiting for you guests of Alpe Rebelle to let you discover the beauty of our valley!
Our family
Ilenia and Daniele were the managers of the Crête Sèche Refuge (2410m above sea level) for more than 10 years
After living all their summers up there they decided to renovate their grandfather’s house a little lower down to try to recreate that particular atmosphere that you experience in the refuge also in Alpe Rebelle.
Ilenia, after several years of competitive skiing, becomes a ski instructor in Valtournenche.

Now she dedicates her time not only to passions and work but also to being a mother!
Daniele is a great fan of mountain sports, such as hiking, mountaineering, climbing, ski mountaineering, and ice falls. He was on the national luge team for 8 years, winning the European Championships and a silver medal at the World Championships. He taught for a few years at nursery school and primary school. From 2002 to 2013 he worked on the ski slopes in Valtournenche, first in the Rescue team and then as Track Director and Rescue Manager.
He has opened several climbing routes, both traditional and on bolts, in the Crête Sèche area. For several years he has had two donkeys that he uses mainly to transport food to the refuge and on some occasions to accompany hikers on the trails of Valpelline. His passion for the mountains and in particular for Bionaz (his mother’s hometown) has led him to frequent the paths and mountains of this valley for several years. Since 2012, he has been co-founder and President of the NaturaValp Association for the development and promotion of responsible tourism in Valpelline.
