Skiing is as you like it.
Skiing is as you like it.
Lots of easy stuff for cruisers, but some high mountain
and bumpy black for better skiers. The same goes for the
après ski. Disco 'til dawn, or sit back and sip some
local wine. No matter, you will enjoy it. Here's the
nifty gritty. The
skiing is possible to an altitude of 2,700m (the village lies at
1,200m) with the main action commencing on Plan Checruit at 2,200m.

Courmayeur, on the
Italian side of the Monte Bianco,
or Mont Blanc if you prefer, is a resort
that has grown
in popularity with skiers from all over the globe.
It is indeed a truly international entity with more languages being spoken here than
at the U.N. This, in this writer's humble opinion is one of the
reasons for its incredible popularity.

for everybody though, and certainly not for the faint hearted,
those lacking in skill, confidence, or experience, and
definitely not for those who are unfit.
