Courmayeur in the winter season

Experience winter in Courmayeur the way we do

When we think of winter in Courmayeur, we think of simple, full days: the first runs on the slopes of Plan Chécrouit, your gaze rising with the Skyway up to the glacier, the Vallée Blanche for the more experienced, the steam from the Pré-Saint-Didier thermal baths, and the slower pace of snowshoes in Val Ferret or Val Veny. These are the experiences we suggest most often, because they truly reflect the way we live the mountains.

Skiing in Plan Chécrouit

The slopes we look at every day

The slopes of Courmayeur are our “everyday view”: from the Dolonne cable car, in just a few minutes, you are up high, among woods and sunny terraces. It’s the kind of skiing we’ve always known, moving between runs, mountain huts, and the return to the village along the pedestrian street.

Riding the Skyway Monte Bianco

Seeing the mountain from very close

The cable car takes you up high, where the air is thin and the view changes with every turn of the cabin. It’s an outing we recommend to those who want to see the Mont Blanc massif really up close.

The Vallée Blanche

A long off-piste descent with the mountain guides

The Vallée Blanche is an off-piste descent on the glacier, suitable only for expert skiers and always to be done with a mountain guide. You start at high altitude, among crevasses and seracs, and ski down surrounded by ice and rock faces until you return to the valley.

An afternoon at the Pré-Saint-Didier Thermal Baths

Warm water while it snows outside

A few minutes from Courmayeur you’ll find the thermal baths, with outdoor pools facing Mont Blanc. It’s a different way of experiencing winter: you stay in the warm water, with the steam rising and the snow in the background.

Snowshoeing in Val Ferret or Val Veny

Silence, fresh snow and slow steps

With snowshoes you enter a quieter landscape, away from the slopes. In Val Ferret or Val Veny you’ll find easy routes, suitable even for those with little experience: you just need to choose the right time of day and a well-trodden path.
