Region in south-west Italy, situated in the highest part of the Italian Alps. Val 'Aosta lies in the shadow of the peaks of Mont Blanc, Cervino and Monte Rosa, it offers unforgettable views. The very well prepared ski runs are available for almost 6 months and supported by a modern and very efficient artificial snow system. The city of Aosta is called the Alpine Rome, because its history goes back to the glory of the Roman Empire. Around Aosta across the entire valley there are many Roman ruins and Medieval castles. The region is famous for its delicious cooking and high-quality wines.
One of the most well-known ski complexes is Pila, built on the slopes of Monte Emilius on the model of French stations. Pila lies at an altitude of 1800 m a.s.l. City of La Thuile, situated at 1450 m above sea level, is an ideal proposition for those looking for a peaceful rest after skiing. In addition, the resort provides a unique opportunity for a skiing trip in two countries at once, because the ski station at La Thuile-La Rosiere is located on the Italian-French border. All the lifts are also covered by one Ski Pass.
