There are 2 distinct sections of the ski area in Courmayeur, both of which favour intermediates with mostly red runs. The Checrouit and the Val Veny offer wide open red runs as well as treeline cruising pistes. Lift passes cover all of Courmayeur as well as access to most lifts in the Chamonix Valley.
Beginners ***
There are several gentle nursery slopes at Plan Checrouit and the small area served by the Tzaly drag, just above the Entreves cable car top station has decent beginner terrain and has reliable snow.
Intermediates ****
The open Checrouit section is going anywhere territory for intermediate skiers with an abundance of good blue and red runs. The Val Veny side offers more interesting tree-lined terrain, wherever you ski as an intermediate you are well catered for.
Advanced *****
The limited number of pisted black runs in the area are on the Val Veny side. With the help of a guide, expert skiers have access to some of the best off-piste skiing in the world including the famous Vallee Blanche descent from the top of the Mont Blanc.
Ski Pass Coverage
There is a local Courmayeur lift pass which will be perfect for the beginner skiers and less confident intermediates. This covers the Skyway Mont Blanc and Aosta Valley as well.
