Marta's Monterosa Blog

I am passionate about the Alps. They are my heart's home and the place where I would like to spend the last day of my life. I have been a tourist in the village of Champoluc in the Italian Monterosa for all my life and worked as a tourist operator in this area since more than 15 years.

I believe in respect for the special environment of this place that you can find only here. We all gain by enjoying its beauty, while trying to make a minimum impact at the same time. Leave it for our children in the future!

I believe in respect for people who live here with their traditions and culture, language, and work, their genuine products and delicious wines. They open their homes for us, tourists and meet us as their guests, if we are able to open our hearts for them. I have a friend who is a hotel owner and he says that when stressed people from the city come to his place, he tells them to sit down and take a drink before they even begin to worry if they have a room. Perhaps, we can bring a little of their kindness and calmness with us on our way back to the city.

My philosophy is to give back a little of what the mountains and the people from this place have given to me and to my family through my work, to communicate my philosophy and my passion to those who follow me on the blog, and in my trips as a tour operator.

If you would like to visit Champoluc, Gressoney, Alagna or other villages in the Aosta Valley, trek or ski in the Monterosa, discover Sardinia or other places we offer, contact us.

Freeride Champoluc

It has been a snowy weekend in the Aosta Valley and more is to come this week.

Courmayeur is expecting 80 cm fresh snow during the next seven days. And Cervinia, which has had a good cover consistently since the ski premier in November, will get another 50 cm.

Snow sure La Thuile got 70 cm of fluffy, fresh snow Saturday and Sunday, which adds up to a total snow depth of 175 cm.

Champoluc with today’s snow depth of 180 cm are waiting for yet half a meter of powder. The promising snow forecast for Gressoney, says 25 cm over the next 7 days - and up to 108 cm the following week.

To sum it up: really good snow-conditions on-piste in all our resorts and great powder opportunities off-piste.
