This ski journey is a deep dive into the heart of the Western Alps, linking some of the region’s most celebrated resorts over five varied days on snow! Each day brings a new destination, new terrain, and a fresh mountain backdrop, from high-altitude glaciers to wide-open pistes and forest-lined runs. Designed to be flexible and welcoming, the program adapts to different skiing styles and conditions. With transfers, lift passes, and accommodation all arranged, the focus stays where it belongs—on skiing well, exploring more, and enjoying life in the Alps.

Arrive in Aosta and settle into our 4-star hotel in the heart of the city. The day is intentionally relaxed, giving us time to explore the historic center, rent any necessary ski equipment, or simply enjoy the comforts of the hotel. In the afternoon, we’ll all meet together for a welcome aperitivo. During this informal briefing, we review the week ahead, discuss weather and snow conditions, and agree on the departure time and plan for the following day.

Accommodation: 4-star hotel in Aosta
Our ski marathon begins with an unforgettable day between Italy and Switzerland. We ski the expansive slopes linking Cervinia and Zermatt, surrounded by high-altitude terrain and panoramic views dominated by the Matterhorn. Wide pistes and seamless border crossings make this a truly iconic alpine experience.

Accommodation: 4-star hotel in Aosta
Today we explore the vast Monte Rosa ski area, starting in Champoluc and skiing across to Gressoney and Alagna. This classic three-valley route offers long, flowing descents and continuous views of several 4,000-meter peaks, showcasing the scale and beauty of the Monte Rosa massif.

Accommodation: 4-star hotel in Aosta
We spend the day skiing in Courmayeur, known for its traditional lifts and forest-lined slopes. The presence of Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps, defines the scenery throughout the day. This area offers a distinctive alpine atmosphere, blending classic charm with impressive terrain.

Accommodation: 4-star hotel in Aosta
Today we ski Pila, Aosta’s local resort, accessed directly from the city by lift. The slopes offer excellent views across the valley, with the Grand Combin massif always in sight. The combination of convenient access and scenic terrain makes this a relaxed and rewarding day.

Accommodation: 4-star hotel in Aosta
Our final ski day takes us to La Thuile, where we ski across the border to La Rosière in France before returning. This international circuit features wide-open slopes and dramatic alpine views, providing a fitting finale to our Western Alps ski marathon.

Accommodation: 4-star hotel in Aosta
On the final day, we take things at our own pace. Depending on departure plans, there may be time to continue exploring Aosta or simply enjoy a relaxed morning before saying goodbye and heading home.
