Aosta Valley: ski lift closing dates for the 2014/15 season

Even in this challenging season, the Aosta Valley Region has managed to guarantee excellent skiing conditions right from the early autumn months thanks to ski lifts that effortlessly reach 3000 meters above sea level. Once again, Cervinia was the first resort to open its lifts and will also be the last to close them, considering that skiing will continue on the Italian side into May.

For the other ski resorts in the Aosta Valley, the season will end in mid-April, with the last day of skiing scheduled for Sunday, April 12. For smaller ski resorts such as Antagnod, Brusson, Champorcher, and Weissmatten in Gressoney-Saint-Jean, the final day will be Monday, April 6 (Easter Monday).
