The sunny slopes above Cervinia are perfect for intermediate skiers and that’s before you even include the vast options across in Zermatt

The high-altitude ski resort of Cervinia not only guarantees fantastic snow coverage but also gives access over the border to Zermatt. For that you will need an upgraded lift pass. You can notch up some serious vertical – the 22km route from the Klein Matterhorn to the village of Valtournenche has a drop of more than 2300m – all on well-groomed pistes that are now increasingly equipped with snowmaking to improve snow reliability even further.

Pros and cons

Fantastic cruising for intermediates
Sunny, high and snowsure slopes
Incredible views of the Matterhorn
Significantly cheaper than over in Zermatt

Can be challenging and cold in bad weather
Wind can close the upper lifts
Expert skiers need to head across to Zermatt
Not a huge amount to do in the village

On the Slopes

Prices are significantly lower than over in Switzerland and the food is fantastic, both in terms of value but also quality. Accommodation is mostly within the compact village centre, but a collection of ski-in-ski-out hotels are located just above and to the east of the centre.

The slopes are high, open and mostly very sunny thanks to their westerly orientation. When the weather is bad however, visibility can be poor and wind closures are a possibility – especially for the lifts crossing to Zermatt. But the high altitude does mean you don’t need to worry about the snow as most of the pistes lie well above 2000m, giving the resort one of Europe’s longest seasons.

For Beginners

A limited day pass covers the village nursery slope, with its long magic carpet and a chairlift to progress to right nearby. Complete beginners should start there before graduating to a great flat area around Plan Maison and the gentle blues above. It is common for fast learners to have reached the top after a couple of days, using the network of blues to return to the resort.

For Intermediates

Cervinia was almost designed for intermediate skiers and pretty much the whole area can be covered comfortably by early intermediates. Wide, rolling pistes drop down from the Swiss border, whilst the epic runs down to Valtournenche are more than in reach and always prove popular with Ski Club members. Stronger intermediates should definitely purchase the Zermatt lift pass upgrade to explore the full 295km of blues and reds in the Matterhorn Ski Paradise.

For Advanced/Expert & Off Piste

Although Cervinia does not have as much steep on piste terrain as neighbouring Zermatt, it does have some great off piste which often remains untracked for longer than many resorts. In addition, it has access to some great heli skiing routes including Tête de Valpelline and the Monte Rosa, which can be explored with local mountain guides.Ski tourers and racers are also well catered for with designated ski touring routes including one from Plan Maison to Theodulpass.

The resort is home to a hugh terrain park, the highest in Europe – and of course there is the option to head over to Zermatt.

In the Resort

What was an old climbing village has grown in to a full-blown ski resort. The cobbled main street is traffic free and whilst it is not the most picturesque, the surrounding scenery is impressive. Much of the evening action happens in hotels, but there are some decent bars and restaurants – serving excellent Italian food.

For Families

As a snowsure destination for families this is a good bet, however when the weather is bad the slopes can be inhospitable for younger ones. The ski school is right in the village centre and there is a natural ice rink with a view that most can’t claim – it looks up directly at the Matterhorn. Many of the hotels have good facilities for children.

For Après

Cervinia is relatively quiet on the après front, but happy hours are a popular feature at bars in resort including Lino’s and The Yeti, especially during the spring months when the resort basks in evening sunshine. To explore the best that the entire resort has to offer, the Ski Club Rep’s social hour rotates on a weekly basis.

Getting to Cervinia

The easiest way to get to the resort is via a transfer. Turin airport is under two hours away and Milan Malpensa lies around two and half hours away. Arriving by public transport is more complicated and takes almost twice as long – catch the train to Chatillon and then get the bus up to the resort. All times listed below are for road transfers.

Turin airport: 2 hours
Milan Malpensa airport: 2.5 hours
Milan Linate airport: 3 hours
Calais: approximately 15 hours driving (733 miles)

Season Dates

Opens: Saturday 26 October 2024
Closes: Sunday 4 May 2025

Summer skiing is normally made available to skiers on the glacier at Zermatt – accessible from Cervinia – soon after the winter closing date.

A local pass is available for Cervinia only (including Valtourneche), but intermediates upwards will want a full area lift pass.

Snow Overview

Italy

Updated 29/04

The penultimate Snow Overview for Italian resorts sees brief flurries of snowfall across higher ground to open this week, although this will fall as rain in many places. Sun moves across the region through the middle of this week, bringing with it fine, dry and bright conditions to many.

Things once again turn more unsettled as the week concludes and the weekend begins; the forecast calls for flurries of snowfall in places, but with the freezing line climbing well above almost all slopes in Italy this seems unlikely and will probably fall as rain in most areas.

The freezing line tops out just over 3,500m, but this may come down as the new week begins, bringing with it perhaps a few flurries of snowfall as things turn more unsettled.
