Total (3.4)
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.
When some of the facilities are renovated (for example, the Colo chairlift), the resort will be really nice; it's just missing a few bubbles for me. The Sauze d'Oulx/Sansicario area is nicer than Sestriere, but the snow is better in Sestriere.

The Sestriere/Via Lattea ski resort is one of the largest and most renowned in the Alps, but for a beginner, it has some pros and cons to consider. If you're a complete beginner, Sestriere may be a good place to start, but it might not be the ideal choice compared to resorts with more beginner-friendly slopes, such as Claviere or Montgenèvre (also in the Via Lattea ski area). However, if you already have some experience or want to quickly improve with ski lessons, it can be an excellent destination.

Excellent ski area. Great fun for both families and singles. Prices are also reasonable considering the size of the area.

I love Sestriere. The mountains are sculpted by an artist and the nature is spectacular. It has beautiful slopes (even for competitive racing) and is an excellent place to spend an unforgettable holiday.

An excellent tourist destination just a stone's throw from Turin, its altitude provides spectacular scenery, beautiful both in summer and winter. The municipality should organize itself better to entertain tourists, but ultimately it's a very peaceful and relaxing place.

The mountain has potential, but it's very poorly managed: outdated lifts (two-seater, non-detachable lifts connecting the resorts), no piste maintenance during the week (no grooming or avalanche control), so everything is closed except on Fridays when everyone is busy preparing for the weekend.

Despite the heavy snowfall, four lifts are open. Don't believe what the website says; everyone, including the ski instructors, is angry. Management is disgraceful to say the least. Everyone is focused on the few open slopes; I can imagine the crowds. No information is provided; the only real goal is to extract money.

The personel is lovely i lost my phone on piste couldnt find it but the personel got it to the police( carabineri) which was unexpected so yh just lovely
Giacomo
Great potential, but poorly exploited; despite the snow and temperatures that allow for snow cannons, many slopes are closed. Elsewhere, they're keeping open, working masterfully. I'm sorry to say, but comparing the ski areas of Trentino-Alto Adige, the Milky Way is significantly inferior.

Good for families, the resort is a little old but we enjoyed it.
