Skier & Snowboarder-Submitted Reviews for Pila
Total (3.8)
A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
Pila offers an excellent balance between slope quality and resort accessibility. Its location provides both shelter on windy days and snow retention. Recent upgrades should reduce queues at the lower lifts in the early hours of the day.
Lucia Tognon
Extremely crowded ski resort with three ski clubs competing on the same day, despite little snow and overall poor organization during the races. We were told the races would end at 11:30, but they actually ended at 1:30, resulting in the slopes reopening only at that time. The only run accessible to experts had, unfortunately, terrible snow cover, characterized by ice slabs and extremely powdery drifts. The other run for less experienced children had a very long queue. Ski lessons had probably been suspended for training and were only available in the late afternoon. At 2:30 p.m., the awards ceremony also began, so for over an hour we could hear nonstop shouting and cheering with stadium horns; the mountain requires silence and tranquility. Overall, the resort is highly inadvisable, whether there are races or not, as there is also extremely annoying entertainment during this period, characterized by loud music and vulgar entertainers.
Alessandro Vitale
A very beautiful ski resort, suitable for families, with excellent slopes for both beginners and experts, although there are few black runs. Beautiful views.
Pasquale
A ski area blessed with snow, even when it's scarce in the Aosta Valley region; ample car and bus parking; easily accessible from Milan; excellent variety of slopes for all levels; this year, a very convenient 8-seater gondola lift has been added to the Cuis 1 slope, replacing an old chairlift. A new section of this ski lift is planned, departing from Aosta, which will allow access to the Pila ski resort in addition to the current gondola lift. Ski pass cost is affordable considering current prices.
Stefania Torterolo
Beautiful slopes and snow. No queues during the week, and modern facilities.
philippe
Beautiful resort with varied slopes and aspects. Opportunities for downhill skiing, off-piste skiing, and ski touring. Several runs wind through the fir trees. Numerous quality mountain restaurants. Pleasant surroundings and the possibility of reaching Aosta via a direct gondola from the valley.
Federico Artuso
Ski resort near Milan, excellent slopes and a variety of off-piste options
Mattia Belfanti
A ski resort offering wide slopes for all levels, various changes in gradient and, for the more daring, a well-established snow park. Despite the scarce snowfall in recent years, the facility always allows for excellent skiing thanks to its excellent organization. Refreshment points in several places and an easy return route make Pila one of the most popular destinations in the Aosta Valley. The only drawback is the cost of the motorway, which is prohibitive if you want to go often, especially if you face the cost of a single ski trip.
