 Poster: A snowHead

Hi, we got great tips to ski Foppolo from fellow snowheads this year.! I'm hoping for a great tip for the 2016 season with a trip to be planned for the feb half term. We are a family of intermediates who enjoy on piste skiing with a nice italian après ski. Anyone any ideas for Italy within 2 hours drive of bergamo that would keep us going for at least 5 days? Thanks in advance

Hi
Madesimo would also fit the bill, 2 hours from Bergamo with good skiing for intermediate skiers
and in the half-term period there is a little bit more apres ski in the village,well worth a look at.

bertieG looks great. Would you recommend private transfer or car hire?

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

I think transfer is about 4-500 euros car hire will be cheaper

If you are willing to invest 2,5h from Bergamo you could very well reach Cervinia (linked with Zermatt) also in the Aosta valley as Monterosa or La Thuile or Courmayeur. Or , to the North, Pinzolo/Adamello skiarea /Ponte di Legno (and even Madonna, also as a daytrip from Pinzolo). Cavalese and Dolomites are within easy reach. Bormio as well, but not in a snowstorm perhaps. I would say that driving to Champoluc is not much quicker than most of these, Cervinia competing with Monterosa for the largest resort in Aosta. Both are very nice anyway, but there are some high winding roads here & there.
