Courmayeur

Located at the foot of Mont Blanc and at the head of the Aosta Valley, there are few places that can boast such an impressive location as the off piste mecca of Courmayeur.

Courmayeur is home to three access gondolas – two from the pretty cobbled streets of the town itself and one from Entrèves, a little up the valley.

While there are some beginner slopes, the pistes are best suited for intermediate skiers, and most visitors come here for the off piste terrain. Long descents run from the summit of the tiny Arp cable car, but the jewels in the crown are the huge descents off Punta Helbronner, served by the Monte Bianco Skyway Cable Car. Hire a guide and ensuring you have the correct equipment is the best way to enjoy these routes. Plan Checouit will remain open after dark, allowing skiers and snowboarders the chance to take dinner or an aperitif on the mountain before returning to down on the gondola – now open until midnight every evening.

Pros and cons

Beautifully sunny, south facing slopes on a clear day
Great intermediate cruising
Bustling town with lots of hotels, bars and restaurants to choose from

Small area of pistes will be skied by most in a day
No resort return run, apart to Dolonne on the edge of town
Not an ideal resort for beginners

On the Slopes

Its inclusion in the Mont Blanc Unlimited ski pass and its unique location that means that it often has snow when the northern Alps doesn’t, makes this a popular destination for skiers from Chamonix when conditions aren’t ideal on the other side of Mont Blanc. But this works both ways, so if the snow isn’t great in Italy, a quick hop through the Mont Blanc Tunnel will have you in France and shredding the powder of Chamonix’s slopes.

Although there are some gentle slopes above Plan Checrouit, there is little here for beginners. Most of the 43km of slopes suit intermediates best and there is some great cruising on offer, both in the trees down to Zerotta and above them towards Youla. The main attraction however is the off piste. There is some excellent tree skiing and some seriously long descents from Arp down either side of the ski area – get a guide to explore these routes best.

Expert off piste skiers and snowboarders should hire a guide and head up to Punta Helbronnner. The views are spectacular from the recently rebuilt rotating cable car, but the ski descents are equally epic. You can either lap the lift via south facing, rocky slopes or head north towards Chamonix and the world- famous Vallée Blanche – ski down and come back via the Mont Blanc Tunnel.

In the Resort

The pretty resort sits in a deep valley so can struggle for sunshine in the depths of winter, but the cobbled streets and traditional main street make up for this. There is a good range of shops – including some excellent shops selling ski touring gear – as well as some cosy bars and restaurants that play host to a lively, but relaxed evening atmosphere in town.
For maximum convenience try and base yourself next to either of the access gondolas in Courmayeur, of which the Dolonne is slightly further out of town – but here you do get the bonus of being able to ski down at the end of the day.
Entrèves is an alternative a little further up the valley, stay here if you are looking to ski tour from the top of Helbronner each day, or if you’d rather escape to a very quiet, small village.

Getting to Courmayeur

You have two options here – either fly to Geneva and drive through the Mont Blanc tunnel or head up the Aosta Valley from Turin. Both journeys take around an hour and a half to two hours.

Turin airport: 1.5 hours (driving)
Geneva airport: 1.5 hours (driving)

Snow Overview

Italy

Updated 25/04

A few flurries of snow continue on higher ground across Northern Italy this weekend, with a few centimetres down in many places. The Dolomites will see the best of this, with around 5cm down Friday into Saturday. Across the board, the freezing line will remain generally friendly, hovering between 2,000 and 2,500m in the southwest and northeast. In the Aosta Valley, the freezing line will be firmly in spring mode, swinging between 1,750m overnight and 2,750m during the day.

Over the course of the new week, the freezing line in these other areas will gently climb, reaching 2,500m overnight and as high as 3,500m in places during the day.
