Today Breuil-Cervinia is opening new terrain, and, on Saturday, November 30, they will also open in Valtournenche, Torgnon and Chamois
Snow has covered well the pistes of the ski resort in Breuil Cervinia -Cervino Ski Paradise allowing it to open more km of pistes. From Breuil-Cervinia to Valtourneche, passing by Torgnon and Chamois, the localities at the base of the Gran Becca, as the Cervino is known, are ready to open for the ski season 24-25.
Today in Breuil-Cervinia the chairlift Crétaz and Campetto will start working next to the lifts Gran Sommetta, the magic carpet of Plan Maison, the Baby skilift, the funicular Breuil-Cervinia-Plateau Rosa and the other three chairlifts of Plan Maison, Fornet and Bontadini. You can ski in the majority of the ski resort, even in the pistes you take to return to the resort, that are the mostly used by winter sports enthusiasts from last weekend.
This Saturday 30th November will open even the departure lifts of Valtourneche and of the joining piste with Breuil-Cervinia, that with Zermatt offers 350 km pistes.
The big snowfall of the past days has allowed the personnel to prepare the slopes of Torgnon and the school slope of Chamois, that will open, as it was previewed, on Saturday 20th November and Sunday 1st December, on every weekend, and then open daily starting on 20-21 December.
At Valtourneche and Torgnon the ski lift sales windows will start operating on Friday 29th November, offering a 10% discount on the ski pass of Valtourneche, and applying the daily rate at Torgnon (of 30 EUR). At Chamois, the magic carpet will be working and the chairlift Lago Lod, that is useful to access the school piste.
