Ski tours Valle Maira
Some info...
Ideal combination of ski tours and culinary delights
Quiet ski tour peaks over secluded mountain villages in the snowy mountains of Italy. Culinary flights of fancy and fine wines from the region after breathtakingly beautiful ski tours. Light larch forests, a stylishly renovated hotel and ski tours for every level and every weather will inspire you!
The ski touring paradise Valle Maira in the province of Cuneo is definitely worth discovering and getting to know this winter! Quiet and secluded mountain villages attract us to this ski tour paradise far down in the south of the Alps in Piedmont. Light larch forests or steep gullies? Generous ski touring slopes on peaks with exotic-sounding names? If you feel like it and like fine food and drink after the tours, you've come to the right place! Often there is powder snow several meters high and it can get crisply cold - the humid air from the nearby Mediterranean provides regular supplies. The hosts in our stylishly renovated hotel in Chiappera provide comfort and spoil us with local delicacies.
A common journey via Turin will be organized by us from Schaffhausen.
