Cervinia

Italy, Aosta Valley. An infinite snowy area that begins at 1,524 metres, in Valtournenche, embraces Breuil-Cervinia, rises up to 3,480 of Plateau Rosà, touches the 4,000 peak of Piccolo Cervino, climbes up to 4,478 to the top of the Cervino. An area where the infinite snow continues on the Swiss side to Zermatt. An area where the snow is the setting of sport, holiday and fun.

If you like skiing you can't miss Breuil Cervinia, an experience you won't forget for sure. There's the mythical sight of the Matterhorn, "the most famous rock in Europe", in such a way described by a charmed guest.

The ski resort of Breuil Cervinia is one of the biggest and most spectacular of Italy with 200 km of ski slopes on amazing mountains like Cervino and Monte Rosa. Cervinia is also linked with Valturnanche and Zermatt (CH) thanks to the Laghi Cime Bianche - Plateu Rosa Gondola and Lago Goillet chairlift.

Some of the best snow and skiing in the Alps.

What brings people to Breuil Cervinia (as the resort now styles itself) in winter in the 20th century is what brought climbers to the original village of Breuil in the 19th century: altitude. For climbers it was a launch pad for assaults on the nearby Matterhorn (Monte Cervino). For winter sports, it offers an unusual combination: slopes that are gentle and extensive, sunny and snow sure.
