Gressoney - boudnary off-piste skiing
Lodging : hotel. Included meals : breakfast, dinner. Meals not included : lunch.
Meet at 09:00 in the
morning with your guide and fellow skiers. Enjoy a short day warm up at the ski area to get a taste
of skiing up and down the local mountains. The day includes a check on your abilities and a review of the key
safety guidelines you need to know for the week.
The Gressoney and Alagna
ski areas offer legendary off-piste skiing. We will provide a few examples in
the descriptions below. However, your guide may decide to alter your initial
plans on any given day to take full advantage of the best weather and snow
conditions in the area.
Gressoney - Passo Betina - Val d'Ayas
Lodging : hotel. Included meals : breakfast, dinner. Meals not included : lunch.
Our first objective, Passo Bettolina. A short ascent on skis from the top of Stafal's lifts leads to Passo Bettolina (2904 m), the highest point on this aspect, but also the closest to the area's massive glaciers. Enjoy a fun descent through Véraz Valley, with the Breithorn, Castor, and Pollux looming high above. You are now in Val d'Aya, as authentic an experience as Aosta Valley has to offer. From the village of Saint-Jacques, take the lifts to Bettaforca Pass. Crossing over the pass leads to another incredible descent down to Gressoney.
Gressoney - Passo Zube - Alagna
Lodging : hotel. Included meals : breakfast, dinner. Meals not included : lunch.
Another day, another aspect, another valley. We will start the day on the other side of the valley, near Olen Pass. After short skin up to Passo di Zube (2874 m), cross over into another valley to ski the amazing terrain above and down to the charming alpine village of Alagna-Valsesia. Alagna's lifts will take us back up to Olen Pass and the Gressoney side of the ridgeline, providing us with the chance to venture off piste towards Gabiet Lake.
Gressoney - Passo salati - Pastore
Lodging : hotel. Included meals : breakfast, dinner. Meals not included : lunch.
From the top of the ski area, we plan to drop down the Alagna side of the mountain. This time, however, we will start from higher up, much closer to the area's glaciers and 4000-meter peaks. This longer tour leads through and down much wilder, untamed terrain near Punta Vittoria, all the wayto the valley floor and the Pastore Hut (which we use in the summer on treks circumnavigating the Monte Rosa Range;-). Alagna's lifts will allow us to make one or two more descents before crossing back over to the Gressoney side and our last night in Aosta Valley.
Gressoney - Punta Indren - Stafal
Lodging : hotel. Included meals : breakfast, dinner. Meals not included : lunch.
This morning we plan to
stay in Lys Valley and climb to the top of Punta Indren (3275 m), located at
the foot of Monte Rosa's glacier-capped peaks. Enjoy close-up views of Punta
Giordani (4046 m). From our high perch, there are several ways to ski down to
Stafal, the highest village (1830 m) in Lys Valley. We will continue skiing above
Gressoney until late afternoon to enjoy this last day.
