Taste Of Italy, La Thuile

2nd - 9th March 2024

Designed to help you discover not just a new ski area, but the ‘trademark’ characteristics of the region, this Ski Experience Trip includes travel, accommodation and dining for an easy package price – you can also add lift passes, ski hire and lessons if you wish.

Our Taste Of Italy Skiworld exclusive experience is to the lovely resort of La Thuile, a picturesque, unassuming Italian resort with a sizeable ski area linked to La Rosiere in France. Nestling in the Aosta Valley, it showcases some of the best cuisine in the area at a very, very affordable price. And so this trip makes no apologies for focusing on Italian food!

Your Accommodation

You will stay at the charming and homely Hotel Chalet Eden, a carefully chosen 4-star boutique hotel a stone’s throw from the lifts in La Thuile. Offering direct access to the slopes, as well as cosy high-quality rooms, the hotel boasts a lovely outside tynnyri-sauna and an organic restaurant where you will enjoy a delicious welcome dinner. Furthermore, at the hotel, you will have the pleasure to try a delectable cellar experience and wine tasting. Furthermore, for 2023/24 the hotel added a new part to their Welness area with a new swimming pool (4m x 8m), two massage/treatments rooms and a new relaxing area.

Eating in the organic restaurant of Chalet Eden will be a real culinary journey, where sustainability is the key and reflects the hotel’s commitment to preserving the environment. Here only authentic products from organic growing and controlled local farms are served. Freshness, genuineness, tradition, and delightful flavours are simply guaranteed. 

The Skiing

La Thuile is the perfect place for some exciting skiing in the varied Espace San Bernardo ski area, laid between Italian La Thuile and French La Rosiere, offering 150 km of slopes for all levels from beginners to intermediate cruising lovers and even for off-piste adrenaline-seekers. The terrain is one of the most varied in the Aosta Valley and is renowned for holding onto its snow incredibly well due to its northerly orientation. March is the perfect time to go and the longer days mean enjoying more of the breathtaking views of the Mont Blanc.

Awe-inspiring landscape – Hotel Chalet Eden is a little gem perfectly embedded in the surrounding, natural and superb green forest. This enviable position offers perfect access to the cable car and ski hire shops, just 200 metres away, and a free shuttle to and from the lifts is provided. You can actually ski back to the hotel (depending on conditions) as the hotel is very close to the confluence of two returning slopes. Location proves to be a winning one also for access to the nearby shops and restaurants of La Thuile located 500 metres away.
