Courmayeur

Courmayeur is one of the most popular winter destinations in Italy, located at the foot of Mont Blanc (4805 m.) and surrounded by a breathtaking view of glaciers and woods. It is located just a few steps from France, and thanks to its international vocation and Alpine identity, this is a place of encounters and contrasts. The territory of Courmayeur also embraces nearby villages. Each of them has its own character: the location, the typical architecture and the culture make these places authentic. In fact here continue to live the customs related to the ancient ovens and patron saints.
Winter is a wonderful season, the whole landscape is covered by a soft white blanket. A place that seems to come out of a framework of other times. The lifts of the ski area of Courmayeur are modern and functional. The ski area boasts about 100 kilometers of slopes, while there are about 30 kilometers of cross-country ski trails between Val Ferret and Arpy.
The Mont Blanc Valley, a colourful universe of traditions and folklore, offers all kinds of entertainment: culture, nature, shopping, relaxation, gastronomy and sport. Among them: downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, mountaineering, freeride, heliskiing, snowshoeing, snowbiking and paragliding. A more particular activity offered by Courmayeur is dog sledding, a route to admire the landscapes of this territory with the same enthusiasm of the beautiful huskies that pull the sled.
Finally, an equally unique and exciting experience is the SkyWay, the cable car climb to the heart of Mont Blanc. It is not only a simple cable car to reach 3,466 meters, but it is an idea: “to bring man closer to the mountain and to the sky, to widen the horizons and overcome the boundaries”.
In short, a stay in Courmayeur offers a multicoloured universe of traditions and folklore, where the variety of the offer contributes to making your stay unforgettable.
