The resort is located a gondola ride above the town of Aosta and makes for a perfect base for snowsure piste skiing.
Most of the runs are marked red and are usually in great condition, thanks to decent natural snowfall, excellent grooming and a comprehensive snowmaking system. Its location just above Aosta means that Pila is much quieter during the week, both on the slopes and afterwards in the bars and restaurants.

Resort ActivitiesPros and cons
- Fantastic pistes – ideal for intermediates
- High treeline means lots of wooded slopes
- Purpose-built convenience
- Can be busy at weekends
- Not a great deal of off piste or challenging slopes
- Relatively small local area of slopes
On the Slopes
At the top of the Aosta gondola there is a neat beginner zone, as is the case in Pila itself. From here progression on to longer blues is good during the week and the middle of the day, but when the main Grimod blue is busy it is a more formidable challenge for less confident skiers and boarders. For intermediates, Pila is home to some of Italy’s best groomed runs, most of which are tree-lined which makes this a fantastic place to be in bad weather.
For more advanced skiers and boarders there are some good blacks above the treeline at the top of the resort and the trees can become one big playground after fresh snowfall. There are also some decent touring options nearby.
In the Resort
Pila has great, purpose-built convenience and as a result is very popular with families and school groups. There is lots of good value accommodation and there are numerous restaurants both in resort and on the slopes, specialising in local Italian cuisine. An alternative is the charming town of Aosta down in the valley – here you will find more variety on the bar, restaurant and shop front.
Getting to Pila
Turin is the closest airport and on a good run, the drive should take less than an hour and a half. Both of Milan’s airport’s make for good alternatives, but the drive will take around two hours.
- Turin airport: 1.5 hours
- Milan Linate/Malpensa airport: 2 hours
Season Dates

Updated 18/02
High pressure over Eastern and Central Europe creates a strong barrier that is preventing low pressure and unsettled weather making its way in off the Atlantic. The result will be a cool but otherwise really stable week and weekend ahead for the Italian Alps.
Sun will be the order of the day for most of this week, with a few flutters of cloud cover moving in through the middle of this week before becoming permanent over the weekend. The freezing line will drop overnight, with lows of -6°C possible at 2,000m. From its nadir at 1,500, the line will climb in the midday sun, reaching 2,500m every day, bringing spring-like conditions to make areas.
Early indicators are for some more snowfall to begin the new week in north-westerly areas, but it remains too early to tell the exact totals expected.
