Intermediates will love the network of blues and reds (there is only one short black run).

Snow conditions are usually fantastic thanks to comprehensive snowmaking and the northerly aspect. The attractive town has a lot going on – including the spas that made the resort famous – and a wide variety of accommodation is available, from luxury hotels to family run guesthouses. Further skiing with nine more lifts is available on the other side of town at Le Motte and Isolaccia.

Pros and cons

Snowsure, intermediate cruising
Good beginner facilities at the top of the gondola
Lots to do in town and great spas

Limited local slopes, but more on offer at Le Motte and Isolaccia
Few challenges for experts and limited off piste
Some hotels a decent walk away from the gondola

On the Slopes

Beginners are very well catered for at Bormio 2000 at the top of the gondola – this does however mean that you have to download at the end of the day. The gentle slopes are served by a mixture of magic carpets and easy draglifts and progression on to longer blues is good. Confident intermediates then have the pick of the mountain, including the long descents back into town, the snowsure reds at the top of the resort and the Stelvio downhill course.

This however is not a resort for more advanced skiers and boarders, especially as the off piste is limited. You will quickly want some variety away from the local slopes, which to some extent the Le Motte and Isolaccia provides, but even in these areas there are few challenges on offer.

In the Resort

The resort has over 40 hotels, giving a great selection of accommodation. The only issue is the size of the town means that some are located a distance from the main gondola – but many run a shuttle bus and the local bus service does link up well.
There is a wide choice of restaurants within the medieval town, which feels as different from a European mega resort as you can get. The food, as with many Italian resorts, is a highlight and prices are very reasonable. Off the slopes, a visit to the famous natural springs, long famous within the resort, is the perfect way to unwind after a long day on the hill.

Snow Overview

Italy

Updated 20/12

A really, really mixed bag is in store this weekend for Italian resorts, with some areas benefiting from a ramp up of winter conditions right before winter, others not enjoying quite the same fate by dint of geography.

The southwest will see a fairly standard pattern, temperatures falling as the weekend progresses and getting some good snowfall making it over the Main Alpine Ridge from France. Sauze d’Oulx will see around 15cm of snow on Sunday, enough to give it a really good boost just before the start of the Christmas week. Cloud and cold conditions will continue, with the occasional flurry of snowfall to freshen things up over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day itself.

Cervinia and the high ground of the Aosta Valley will be best placed to capture this upcoming snowfall, with a foot expected down on Sunday and then again across Monday and Tuesday combined. This will fall across all elevations as the freezing line remains firmly rooted to around 500m elevation. Christmas Day itself is expected to be fine, dry and bright, with cold temperatures and plenty of sun, making for near-perfect riding conditions after the previous snowfall!

Finally, in the Dolomites, a much calmer, brighter weekend and Christmas week is in store – but this does come at the cost of missing out on snowfall. High pressure will remain dominant, meaning sun will be present on Saturday and again in the new week, interspersed with cloud cover and flurries of snow. This won’t really be much to register on a snowstick at all, most of the snow here getting stuck on the Austria side of the Main Alpine Ridge.
