Colle Bettaforca is one of the "key points"
of Monterosa Ski and plays the role of watershed between the
Valleys of Ayas and Gressoney.
Two modern four-seater chairlifts with automatic
hooking take the skiers to the top and provide access to two
pistes of medium difficulty.
We suggest this ski area to intermediate skiers
and to family groups. The slopes are very large and long, plus
it is possible to enjoy skiing in the bright Monterosa sunshine
for the whole day. What an opportunity! Ski one valley, then
the other and get a sun tan at the same time.
Want to ski on Champoluc side? Simply take
the "Del Colle" piste. This is a 4 kilometre long slope.
Connection to the "Dei Larici" slope.
A little bit demanding on its top half, the
descent becomes easier in its second stage, that which leads
to Frachey. And here's a special lunch time suggestion; stop
at Ciarcerio's Restaurant for a sandwich or a good "polenta".
If you wish to reach Gressoney from the top
of Bettaforca chairlift, take the "Pistone Betta".
This slope, wide and easy all the way to S.Anna, offers the skier
magnificent powdery snow all winter long.
A great opportunity
for you to look good and feel good - even, dare we suggest -
just a teeny bit better than you actually are.
Once you reach S.Anna (2,170 m.), staring
point of Gressoney/Bettaforca chairlift, you can continue skiing
down through wooded trails towards Staffal (1,830 m.), a small
village where you'll be able to stop for a drink or for lunch.
From Staffal a six-seater cable way takes you
up to the Gabiet (2,325 m.). Besides the importance to connect
the two sides of Gressoney Valley, this cable car makes transfers
in the area far easier, as it allows visitors to ski on both
sides without need for a shuttle service.
