Why not spend Easter on Italy’s Monterosa slopes and enjoy a spectacular Easter lunch at high altitude?
Four valleys, 51 slopes and 28 ski lifts
While at lower altitudes the cherry trees are already in bloom, there is still time for one last ski run in the Monterosa Ski area, between Italy’s northern Val d’Aosta and Piedmont regions. These valleys are snow-covered until the end of April, leaving skiers of all levels to venture into one of Europe’s largest ski areas. Four valleys, 51 slopes served by no fewer than 28 ski lifts at an altitude of between 1,200 and 3,300 metres, while in the background the majestic profile of Monterosa peeks out between the glaciers. 
The Monterosa valleys are for skiers of all levels
Dominating this scenery is the 4,634-metrem peak of Punta Dufour, from which three valleys descend between the Val d'Aosta and Piedmont. Sport, culture, food, wine and fun for the whole family: there really is a Monterosa for everyone, even in spring, and even at Easter. Valsesia is known as a freeride paradise, the Gressoney Valley has funslopes, cross-country ski runs and baby-snow-parks, and between the Gressoney Valley and the Val d'Ayas here are endless kilometres of trails suitable for ski mountaineering.
The Happy Ski promo for die-hard skiers
