Champoluc - Monterosa Ski Snow Report

Champoluc – Monterosa Ski in the Valle d’Aosta region stretches across 29 km of pistes served by 18 runs and 10 lifts, all nestled beneath the towering peaks of the Monte Rosa massif. The resort sits at an elevation of 1 587 m at its base, climbing to 2 705 m at the summit, which provides a vertical drop of 1 118 m. Averaging 241 cm of snowfall each winter, the mountain’s high altitude and extensive north-facing slopes ensure reliable snow cover well into the season. Though small compared to neighbouring giants, Champoluc shines for intermediate and advanced skiers, with 71% of its pistes graded red and 7% black. The remaining terrain caters to more cautious skiers, offering gentle slopes that are ideal for building confidence. A single terrain park near the Frachey area provides fun features for freestyle enthusiasts without overwhelming beginners. Beyond the skiing, Champoluc captures an authentic alpine ambience. A cluster of traditional stone-and-wood chalets forms the heart of the village, where cosy mountain restaurants serve robust local fare. For families, there are dedicated beginner lifts and snow gardens, while après-ski options include a communal ice rink and laid‑back bars where visitors can swap stories of the day’s adventures.
