Italy ski holidays & resorts

On the slopes, Italy's ski resorts enjoy a good snow record. There is plenty of high skiing and you can even find glacier skiing in Cervinia. You will find the most snowsure ski resorts in Italy in Arabba, Champoluc, Sestriere, Livigno.

Kronplatz, based in South Tyrol and the Dolomiti Superski area is known for its modern lifts, guaranteed snow and breathtaking 360º views of the Dolomite Mountains. The pistes are well groomed and never overcrowded, making the resort ideal for all levels of skiers and particularly families and beginners.

A firm favourite with us is the duty-free resort of Livigno which excels in combining value and fantastic skiing. The unique layout means there are dedicated areas and lifts for beginners straight from resort level, while more experienced skiers and boarders can head to the top and enjoy a huge range of on and off-piste skiing. For those looking for some serious fun, head to the Mottolino snowpark which has hosted many international freestyle competitions.

Another great choice is Cervinia, linked across the Swiss border with Zermatt, with extensive high altitude slopes, wide and well-groomed. Cervinia’s Val d’Aosta neighbours Gressoney and Champoluc in the Monterosa ski area, combine to give extensive family-friendly Italian ski holidays with exciting heli-skiing options for the more adventurous.

The Olympic ‘Milky Way’ resorts (Sauze d’Oulx and Sestriere) are lively resorts with an active après scene. Sauze’s reputation for offering reasonably priced food and drink is justified and has helped cement its reputation as a popular après destination. Sestriere is home to the Tabata night club, which claims to be one of the biggest and the best that the Alps has to offer!

Over in the Dolomites, Selva's Luislkeller, known by the locals as "LKs" is a popular spot for those wanting to continue into the small hours of the morning. Canazei is also a firm favourite with a great selections of bars and clubs to sing at the top of your voice and dance the night away.

Located east of the Sellaronda circuit, Selva is one of the most iconic resorts in the Dolomites, known for its stunning alpine scenery, extensive ski terrain, and vibrant village atmosphere. As part of the Val Gardena area, it offers access to a vast network of pistes within the Dolomiti Superski region. 

Selva is a great choice for beginners and intermediates. The slopes around the Dantercepies and Plan de Gralba areas offer some of the best learning terrain in the region, with wide, well-groomed blue runs perfect for building confidence. The gentle gradients and consistent grooming make Selva an ideal base for developing key skiing skills while enjoying the breath-taking beauty of the Dolomites.

Corvara is another fantastic option for beginners. The slopes around the Col Alt and Boé areas offer some of the finest blue runs in the region with wide runs, immaculately groomed, and ideal for developing technique in a relaxed setting. With plenty of gentle terrain and scenic descents, Corvara makes progressing on skis both enjoyable and inspiring.
