Located atop Italy’s picturesque Aosta Valley, with Mont Blanc looming above, ski holidays in Courmayeur offer an unrivalled setting for ski enthusiasts. High-altitude slopes and snow-sure conditions promise skiers of all abilities a thrilling experience, as does the homely alpine village feel and the delicious Italian cuisine.

Fly into either Turin or Geneva for a short 1hr 30min transfer time to Courmayeur Ski Resort, where a car-free village centre with medieval-style cobbled alleys, homely bars, and chic boutique shops await with a warming welcome. Whether you’re travelling as a family or a couple, this charming ski destination promises plenty of experiences, on and off piste, and memories to cherish.

Courmayeur encompasses over 40km of ski slopes, all 2500m above sea level and beyond. With a wide range of technical pistes, and chances to ski off piste, the resort is bursting with opportunities for advanced skiers to improve their skills. As ambitious skiers will know, the famous Vallee Blanche within the resort is a popular item on the ski bucket list, and one you can soon tick off! The resort also provides excellent ski schools, guiding services, and equipment rentals.

It’s easy to reach Courmayeur’s neighbouring resort Chamonix to broaden your skiing horizons. The Aosta Valley Ski Lift Pass gives you access to all neighbouring resorts, so you can head even further afield.

Beyond the glistening ski slopes, Courmayeur offers a host of alternative activities and facilities that will illuminate your trip. Adventure enthusiasts can embark on snowshoeing, figure skating on the ice rink, at the snow park, or winter hiking expeditions through the stunning alpine landscapes, soaking in the beautiful views. If you’d prefer a less active afternoon, you can spend some time in Courmayeur’s renowned thermal baths and wellness centres, where you can relax and restore with personalised spa treatments while admiring the stunning views.

Your luxury alpine-style hotels are also something to enjoy off the slopes. We've chosen the finest ski chalets in Courmayeur for our charming collection, offering all you could wish for on a ski holiday, including indoor swimming pools, breathtaking mountain views, and a choice of incredible restaurants serving gourmet cuisine. Whatever you need from your Italian style home-from-home, our Travel Specialists are here to help you find it.
