To best serve a range of functions, the resort offers clients their choice of an event area across several locations. This unique Smoky Mountain establishment has been around since 1981 and has prospered through various trials and tribulations to become a thriving success. I could not imagine anything better than that hotel.Hidden Mountain Resort is a family-owned wedding venue located in Sevierville, Tennessee. We stayed at Hotel Ayas, a very nice hotel with helpful owners. Not compared to the prices here in Norway, but generally across the Alps. I know I will travel back when I'm finished with my studies, as it is somewhat expensive. Why I decided to travel to Champoluc I do not know, but I do not regret either. The last loooong gondola takes forever, but you get transported a fantastic long bit. It takes a little more than an hour to get to the top of Alagna/Gressoney peak. The crossings to the other valleys were open 5/6 days whilst I was there. If the crossings over to the other valleys close, some queues might appear in the morning but as the day passes by they nearly disappear. The Champoluc side of the Monterosa ski system is good in the afternoon/evening as then there is sun and not that many people. Hint: go skiing where the sun barely/does not appear, hehe ) Me and my friend found wonderful powder after 4 days. Someone had written here that you can find powder no matter what, somewhere in the system. Hopefully the fences will stop you, but I did not test them. This reflects the skiing opportunities some places I would not want to fall as you would fall 300 metres right down.
The mountains are very steep and somewhat rocky. In Austria, you could go skiing to the peak/maximum top of every mountain (nearly) while in the Monterosa ski system that is a no go. Skiing in the Italian part of the Alps is different from the Austrian, to a large degree, I would say. I talked to one, and he said there were 221 across the Italian part of the alps! Also, I can say that there is a police force skiing, for security, emergency assistance and anything else you could imagine. Maybe I was unlucky, but the lasagna was brilliant no matter where you ate it. Food was good as well, though the pizzas were not good. Not many late night party places, but still, Panachama was all I needed (after ski). From what I could see, it was also the largest, not that it was any larger compared to towns in Austria. Man, life sucks afterwards! Champoluc is one of the three valleys that build up the Monterosa ski system. However, everyone loved the resort, and said they would return.Ī week has passed already since we left Champoluc and the Monterosa ski system in Italy.

I personally have been in many ski schools over forty years, so have some experience & the best ones carry out a short test right at the start to separate the wheat from the chaff, and they always give you at least your full time entitlement, after all you are paying for this. The instructors were very friendly but lacked direction as an example two of the adults should have been moved to a more advanced group after two days, but were not & the nursery slopes are pretty tame once you have got the hang of it, & the third adult gave up after two days & went walking instead, as he was bored stiff. Ski school is supposed to be for two hours a day which is not very long, but it was made even shorter as it never started on time at 10.00 hrs and always finished at 11.45 hrs. The children were between four & nine and had never skied before, likewise three of the adults.
Our only complaint would be the ski school. Everywhere people were friendly and helpful. There was plenty of snow and very good weather: the best combination. We stayed at the Hotel de Champoluc and enjoyed that very much.
We were a family of eleven: four children and seven adults. We have recently had a wonderful week in Champoluc from March 2 to March 9.
