  • Helicopter tours
  • Toboggan run
  • A night in a mountain refuge with dinner

Beginners
At the top of the Punta Jolanda chair lift is some ideal terrain for the first days on skis. The run down to the village is more demanding but can be conquered by the end of the week.

Intermediate
Gressoney and its neighbouring valley Ayas is ideal for polishing up skiing techniques on the long and varied runs amidst the spectacular scenery of the Monte Rosa mountain chain. From the Punta Jolanda chairlift the runs are interconnected and include a long black run down to Stafal.

Advanced
This area offers fantastic opportunities for the advanced skier extending from the awesome range of runs to the chance of excellent off piste skiing. The Monte Rosa area is now rated one of the best in Europe.

Snowboarding
Plenty of good freeriding to be had here, especially if the opportunity of Heli-boarding is exploited. There is some perfect terrain for beginners, especially the slope next to the Jolanda chair.

Apres Ski
Informal and relaxed, Gressoney's night life revolves around the local bars and caés · In La Trinité the Hirsch Stube is best for draught beer and the Petit Bar for scrumptious home made apple cake. Gressoney offers good restaurants serving typical local specialities. At La Trinité, the Sporthaus is popular for grills and venison, the Pizzeria Walserchild or the Schnee Blume, Bar Monterosa or Petit Bar for fantastic sandwiches, at Stafal the Capanna Carla or the Kramenthal serve local dishes.
