Champoluc

Champoluc is located in the heart of the Monterosa ski area, and sits in the shadow of one of the highest peaks in Italy.

The unspoilt village is arguably the most popular resort within the region, but it remains something of a hidden gem with visitors.

It means that those who elect to head for Champoluc can expect to enjoy their time on uncrowded slopes away from the big crowds; all whilst enjoying true rustic Italian charm.

The well-groomed slopes of the Monterosa region are ideal for the more experienced skiers, although there are limited options available for those who are new to the sport.

In the main however, it is the intermediate or expert level skier who will truly enjoy a break in Champoluc and the surrounding area, with the region also being popular with snowboarders.

Add into the mix the après-ski and the stunning scenery and it’s easy to see why Champoluc’s time as a hidden gem may soon come to an end…

Off Piste Skiing in Champoluc

The off-piste skiing in Champoluc is some of the best you can expect to find across Europe, and one of the major draws for expert skiers looking for a challenge.

Both marked and unmarked trails are worth exploring, with good levels of snow expected throughout the season.

Apres-Ski in Champoluc

There are plenty of options when it comes to après-ski within Champoluc, with the resort offering plenty to do after a day on the slopes.

Authentic Italian cuisine can be enjoyed at the various restaurants, whilst you won’t be short of options when it comes to bars – with plenty of choice when you want to grab a refreshing beer or a colourful cocktail.

Live music and entertainment on an evening is also a feature of the resort.

Non-Skiing Activities in Champoluc

You’ll also have plenty of options when it comes to non-ski activities away from the slopes, with the chance to be pampered at a local spa – or further afield at the Thermal Water Spa in Saint-Vincent.

You could also try ice skating, snowshoeing or even heli-skiing – something that will appeal to those with a sense of adventure.

There’s also indoor and outdoor swimming pools; the latter being heated (thankfully…)
