Winter Sports France Via Lattea

Winter sports Via Lattea: The Ultimate Guide

Via Lattea is a beautiful ski area that lies exactly on the border between Italy and France. A paradise for beginners and advanced skiers. There is plenty to do for everyone. From beautiful blue slopes to very steep black ones. You can make beautiful long trips and choose various off-piste routes. The ski area is known as one of the most child-friendly areas when it comes to winter sports. Many easy and slow ski slopes and safe lifts. For children the ski pass is cheaper.

Via Lattea is not known for its exuberant après-ski. However, there are several cosy places where you can have a drink. Montgenèvre for example is a very nice village. The ski area is high and the snow is fine. The lower areas are a little less snow sure. On the higher peaks you can almost always ski in winter. The price for the ski pass in the table below applies to the Italian part of the ski area. For the French part you pay extra.
