Ski Italy?
You see Italy is
not only home to
the highest
mountain in
Europe, Mont
Blanc or Monte
Bianco in
Courmayeur, but
it has some of
the best and
liveliest ski
stations in all
of Europe. You
say you like
fashionable
skiing? How des
the name Cortina
d' Ampezzo grab
you? That well
known resort is
the site of
Olympic fame
past and is
smack in the
middle of one of
the most
beautiful
mountain ranges
in Italy, the
Dolomites.
Please don't
forget the
resorts near
Turin as well.
They just finished hosting the winter
Olympics too. And think of Cervinia on
the Italian side of the Matterhorn, or
Monte Rosa the site of a cluster of
great resorts just down one road and up
another. There are plenty of places to
ski in Italy. Many are world class, some
are better for less experienced skiers
and more are for beginners. Is skiing in
Italy cheaper than other spots in
Europe? Not since the inception of the
Euro is my opinion. Anyway skiing in
Italy is plentiful and fun. Yes there is
the great food and wine. And yes again
the Italians exhibit a special joy of
living that makes the country bubble. So
skiing in Italy it is. As a winter
destination almost any bit of the
country will.
