Located between the regions of Valle d'Aosta and Piedmont, the well-known Monterosa Ski resort has reopened.
The summer season will run until 15 September
This is the third consecutive year for the summer season which will end on 15 September. In addition to accompanying mountain lovers in winter, the Group's lift system is also open for the summer, and is ready to welcome mountaineers, bikers, hikers or anyone who wants to take to the heights, reducing the height difference of their excursions.
“We expect an excellent summer”
"The strategic choice to anticipate the opening of the lifts to 1 June for the first time two years ago, was a winning one, and with the favourable conditions of the glacier, we expect an excellent summer,” says Giorgio Munari, CEO of Monterosa S.p.A.
A choice of ski lifts for summer excursions
Between the Ayas, Gressoney and Valsesia valleys, there are five mountain chalets over 3,400 metres above sea level. The first lifts to inaugurate the summer season were those in the Gressoney Valley, thanks to which high altitude refuges can be reached on the peaks of Monte Rosa. The Weissmatten chairlift will open in Gressoney-Saint-Jean , while in Valsesia, from Alagna, the Indren glacier at an altitude of 3,275 metres can be reached by lifts. And the summer at high altitude has also begun in Valle d'Ayas with the Champoluc-Crest cable car, which offers a continuous service, including evening runs.
Reduced ticket prices for children
Monterosa Ski offers tickets for single runs or cumulative passes for several lift sections. With the "3 Valleys" ticket, visitors can thus start the day with breakfast in Champoluc, stop for lunch in Alagna and have a coffee break in Staffal before returning. There are reduced ticket prices for children and, with the simultaneous purchase of an adult ticket, children born after 31/10/2015 can use the service free of charge.
