We are delighted to extend our programme to La Thuile, which although local to Courmayeur, offers a larger ski area which is suitable for all levels of skier:
Beginners and snowboarders will love the wide open pistes, intermediates will be able to access a huge variety of pistes and ski into France and advanced skiers can easily access the off piste and have the opportunity to heli-ski on the Le Retour Glacier.
The town of La Thuile offers very good value accommodation and a selection of après ski bars, pizzerias, swimming pool and fitness centre.
Thanks to its good snow record and north east facing slopes, La Thuile also offers a longer ski season ideal for the Easter holidays.
