← Ski Ski resort · Espace San Bernardo, France

La Thuile

The Italian side of the pass, a lower town at around 1,440 m in the Aosta valley with the area's best snow and its steeper, tree-lined runs. Quieter and more low-key than a big Italian resort, it's the base for freeride, forest skiing and long mountain lunches — snow and character over sun and doorstep convenience.
