Out of all the ski resorts I've tried in Italian Alps, so far Madonna di Campiglio tops everything…read moreelse for an intermediate snowboarder like myself! Breathtaking view with long gorgeous pistes that are catered mostly to intermediate skiers made this my favorite ski resort. The spectacular panoramic view of the Alps exceeds Obereggen and Alta Badia by far, it's hands down the best scenic resort. It's probably one of the most popular ski destination with the possible celebrity sightings such as F.Alonso, Massa, Valentino Rossi who are some of the regulars. With 19 lifts (5 gondolas, 12 chair lifts, 2 surface lifts) the resort offers skiers an incredible 1000 metres (3281 feet) of vertical descent and has 35 pistes with a total length of 60 kilometers. I snowboarded here during the week of Xmas from Dec.23 to Dec. 28 and I cannot ask for any better time to come here..... the pistes were almost empty!!! Since most people prefer to stay home with their family during the Xmas week, we got such an amazing deal for 4 nights stay with 4 days ski pass, breakfast, and 3 course dinner for only 420 euro from a nearby hotel (Hotel Canada)!! However, starting the 28th the pistes were getting crowded and the price hiked. I would definitely go back again...... I can't wait!!!!

When you go skiing in St Moritz glamour and luxury are not the only things to discover. Though the…read morerich and the beautiful like to come here in winter time, the ski resort is also famous for its numerous winter activities, for its warm ski huts, its snow and sun. St Moritz is one of the most important winter sports areas in Switzerland. Here you can find many miles of slopes at all difficulty levels. Not far away from the cozy chalets of St Moritz and Celerina a variety of broad slopes wait for the skiers and snowboarders, e.g. at the Munt da San Murrezan, at the Piz Nair or the Piz Schlattain where you can ski down to Celerina. Beside the alpine slopes there are other winter attractions to be enjoyed in the ski resort St Moritz - Corviglia. One of them is the big snow park situated between Corviglia and Marguns. It comes with almost all obstacles you wish for as well as a half pipe and a quarter pipe

Montecampione is a great ski resort that has everything - it's close to Bergamo's Orio al Serio…read moreAirport (cheap Ryanair flights) it's at the top of a massive lake and the small town of Boario is at it's base. You can stay in Boario or in the ski resorts, get lessons, hire or buy gear, have meals at the top restaurants up there and do fun activities like snow-treking. We ended up getting a really good end-of-season package with everything included - they're always available online.

On-mountain restaurants were just ok - we were expecting more of a lively scene (we went to Andorra a few years ago and loved it - djs at lunch created a fun vibe). Infrastructure (gondala and lift system) is a+ though - no lines even though lots of people here during the holidays. Town is quaint but 4 nights is more than enough.

In Ischgl there is a free parking place next to the slopes. The scenery is amazing and the slopes are very well maintained. The gondolas equipment on the Austrian side is close to brand new. They have the latest technology employed there. For 2020 they are opening a massive spa/ sauna complex. I skied there for 7 days and it was spectacular. You have to go there to see for yourself how amazing it is. Five stars overall for service, location and friendly people.
