Breuil-Cervinia is a premier ski resort nestled in the Aosta Valley in northwestern Italy, right at the foot of the majestic Matterhorn. At an altitude of 2,050 metres it’s one of the highest resorts in the Alps, which means the resort offers one of the longest ski seasons. From late October to early May, visitors can use over 350 km of linked slopes across two countries, with summer skiing available on the Plateau Rosà glacier. Off the slopes, there are great après-ski options, mountain restaurants, and other sports like snowshoeing and ice karting. Whether you go for the sports, the vibe, or the views, Breuil-Cervinia provides an unforgettable winter experience.
Breuil-Cervinia is a dream for skiers and snowboarders of all levels. The wide slopes are perfect for beginners, the scenic runs for intermediates, and for experts, the resort connects to steeper and more technical pistes in Zermatt. Freeriders can find deep powder areas, and snowboarders will enjoy the Indian Park, one of Italy’s best snow parks. And with glacier skiing available up to 3,883 metres, the season lasts longer, meaning more time on the slopes! Whether you're after more relaxed skiing, speedy descents, or breathtaking scenery, Breuil-Cervinia has something for everyone.
Breuil-Cervinia offers a relaxed yet enjoyable après-ski scene, with plenty of places to unwind after a day on the slopes. While it may not be the liveliest party resort, there are plenty of bars, pubs, and mountain restaurants to explore. The best spot for après-ski is near the village centre at the foot of the nursery slopes, where you’ll find a mix of traditional Italian lounges, casual bars, and cosy mountain huts serving mulled wine, local cheeses, and hearty alpine dishes like fondue and polenta. With around 50 restaurants, there’s plenty of choice for dining, from rustic trattorias to elegant eateries. While nightlife is generally low-key, discos and clubs do pick up on weekends, with DJs and live bands keeping the energy going for those looking to dance. Many British visitors come for the skiing and stay for the après, to enjoy a relaxed bar-hopping experience in a charming alpine setting.
