_general

Join us on a trip that combines skiing, adventure, relaxation and authentic Italian atmosphere. We will experience the pulse of the preparation for the Winter Olympics in a unique winter experience at the foot of the highest mountain in Europe!

Courmayeur is one of Italy’s most impressive and cosmopolitan winter destinations, with countless slopes, unique views of the Alps and the famous Skyway Monte Bianco that rises to 3,466 meters.

Ski Resort

Courmayeur ski resort is spread out on the slopes of Mont Blanc and offers one of the most complete ski experiences in the Alps. With 33 pistes, plenty of off-piste opportunities, modern lifts and two large areas, Plan Chécrouit and Val Veny, Courmayeur is an ideal destination for both beginners and advanced skiers. The wide, sunny slopes, excellent snow and panoramic views towards the summit of Mont Blanc create a setting that is difficult to find elsewhere, while the mountain chalets complete the ultimate Alpine experience. In addition, Courmayeur is directly connected to France via the Mont Blanc Tunnel, an impressive 11.6 km underground passage that leads directly to Chamonix. The presence of the tunnel makes the area even more accessible, allowing easy travel between the two most important ski resorts in the Alps and thus offering more options for skiing, exploration and day trips.
