Sestriere Ski Holidays

Sestriere was the Alps first purpose built resort developed by Fiat’s Giovanni Agnelli in the 1930’s. The resort was built for snow so is high with North West facing slopes and has very extensive snowmaking. The village sits on a broad and sunny col and benefitted from recent investment at the 2006 Winter Olympics. It is very much an international resort that is part of the famous ‘Milky Way’ ski circuit

Sestriere Skiing and Snowboarding

As Sestriere is part of the famous ‘Milky Way’ it offers access to a stunning 400Km of pistes. Beginners will find the terrain to be good with several nursery areas and the gentlest of the easy blues down to Borgata. Intermediates will find plenty to amuse them in both of the sectors of Sestriere and confident intermediates will be able to explore practically all of the Milky Way areas. The runs in the Motta sector are more of a challenge. The huge bowl of the Amfiteatro offers excellent skiing and the black runs at the top of Motta and Sises give the experts plenty of skiing and boarding.
