Cervinia – Situated at the foot of the Mont Blanc, this Traditional Italian ski village of Courmayeur forms part of the Aosta Valley near the French border. This charming medieval village has a picturesque mix of French and Italian influences which can be seen in its cobbled streets, stylish boutiques and authentic cafés. Although the ski area is not large the resort more than makes up for it with exquisite on-mountain dining, extensive off-piste and a lively après scene.

This would have to be one of our favourite Ski break destinations and onl 1 hour 30 minutes from Geneva Airport with a trip through the Mont Blanc Tunnel.
You can’t ski back to town at the end of the day, the easiest way is to ride the gondola back down (it’s open till midnight) – Courmayeur is on the sunny side of Mont Blanc – so sunscreen and sunglasses are recommended – and a Visit to the SUPER G Bar at Plan Chercrouit for a Spritz and great apres then get the Gondola back into town.
