Courmayeur is the Italian opposite to the French Chamonix. Not only is it situated next to the Mont Blanc, but is rather a spot of alpine climbers to skiers. Anyway, it still is one of the most popular Italian skiresorts. 100 km of well done trails, strictly Italian atmosphere and certainty of good snow conditions - these are the best characteristics of the spot.

Amateurs of good sights will definitely appreciate the view of the Mont Blanc and adventure-seekers hire a guide and take a tough tour to the Chamonix Valley. The presence of the Gigante glacier ensures of good snow conditions and allows to try skiing also in summer.

Travelers visiting Courmayeur are most often Italians, so the resort seems to be different from other ski areas of Italy. Although the Mont Blanc tunnel exists since 1965 and the whole area of Valle d'Aosta is easily approachable from the French side of the massif, the majority of French citizens visit Courmayeur only on daily basis. They hire a guide and come back to Chamonix skiing the trails of the Gigante glacier.

Wide range of apres ski activities includes: casino (Saint-Vincent and in Chamonix France); Sport Center with fitness, ice-skating ring, curling, squash, indoor tennis, indoor golf, artificial climbing wall. Parapente, snow bike, swimming in Pré- St-Didier and in some hotels in Courmayeur and La Salle, golf, Adventure Park for children and adults, walking path on the snow.
