Great snow! A great mix of runs offering a bit of everything to all types of skier. One of the best beginner runs and progression I have come across perfect for families and school groups. Can ski over to France and back as long as you dont mind a long drag lift. Lifts system is a little dated but hardly ever any lines. Lots of options to eat in the mountain and hotels in village. Nightlife is a little on the quiet side, more suited to families or people just there to ski.

A great mix of terrain available for skiers or boarders, mellow blues and steep blacks. There are tree lined south facing and north facing slopes so you can pick your options on sunny or snowy days. Linked with La Rosiere in France which has a different kind of style all together. Plenty of good food and drink options on the mountain and reasonable prices. The home runs can be tricky for intermediate level or below but the efficient gondola can get you home. Not much spares in town but if that's something you are looking for you can find it.

This was my first and only resort for many years, where I first fell in love with the sport. The ski school options here are incredible, with passionate and experienced leaders. The runs are perfect to find your confidence quickly and grow as a skier. This truly is a family focused resort with incredible food options, some great accommodation and brilliant access to the region. The skiing is exemplary with some challenging runs back down into the resort making for a brilliant end of day blow out. Up the top the views are unrivalled and access over to France for more diverse slopes.

Came here as part of the aosta valley pass for a day. Great snow as its on a bit of a plateau. Windy and the lifts are older style so not the quickest. Links onto La Rosie re for extensive ski area. Really nice runs and variety of pistes. Views also lovely. Maybe not the resort for a week holiday, but great to ski for a day or two. Overall would recommend.

Amazing ski area with variety of slopes. Very quiet in comparison to more popular resorts probably due to lack of apres ski bars.

I was there for a week and there was a great dump of dry powder that lasted a good few days and we didnt run out of off piste to ski and we continually found new exciting places to ski off piste, however the tree skiing didnt feel very accessible however there was a few pockets of trees where the snow was very deep and was fun to ski. As for the groomed runs the conditions at the top and middle level the snow was freshly packed and very nice to ski but the lower levels where a bit icy but this wasn't a big problem because there was lots of blues gradually going down the mountain which where very easy to get down even with the ice.

La Thuile May not be the biggest or flashiest resort out there but for value for money and how quiet it is, it ranks near the top of the list. La Thuile Is one of the best family resorts out there, with runs of all difficulty being up on the hill instead of at the bottom like most resorts. There are a good spread of the 3 different grades used in Italy meaning there is stuff for everyone. One thing the La Thuile resort does lack is off piest areas and runs being virtually none aswell as there being no terrain park. If you are looking for a great value option for you and your family I would definitely recommend La Thuile.
