The slopes
Snowboarding
The Baby Sansicario chairlift takes beginners up to the top of a couple of gentle blues and with guidance from the excellent ski school first time skiers are soon progressing to the higher slopes. Intermediates and advanced skiers may want to try their hand at the Olympic run or take the new bubble over to Sestriere to access some of the more challegning slopes on offer.
