The Skiers' Guide to Sestrière

Had a lovely time here with the family we had great fun good range of pieste levels for the younger kids and the more experienced skiers

Had an awesome time in Sestriere. Loved being able to hop on the gondola and go over to Sauze and Sansicario. I find it much better priced than a lot of resorts.

Excellent week with mixed weather giving cloudy days, whiteout days at mountain toos and blue sky days too

Not the best for beginner skiers but lots of good red runs. Apres is fun but there’s definitely better at other resorts I’ve been too.

Fab resort - lots of beautifully prepared wide open slopes. Lifts great quality and friendly staff. You can even try ann Olympic downhill course there!

Had a great week here, slopes were well prepared, and lifts were great.
Had a beginner with us also where separate cheaper passes were available for carpets and lower better lifts.

Really enjoyed my third visit to Sestrière. As a beginner/intermediate skier the slopes are fantastic. Lots of variety and easy to get around. Highly recommend for families and beginners.

Some great runs but there are choke points with inadequate uplift to get out of valley and to cross between zones. Some transit pistes suffer similar. Once out/across then everything fine. Coffee a couple euro so life is good.

Lots of great runs with lots of variety, although the lift system needs an upgrade.
The Piste map isn't the easiest to follow, as the runs aren't named, but we had lots of fun, none the less

Lovely resort for all especially when it’s all open. The whole vibe of the mountains and town is really cool and lots to choose from depending on where you want to spend your time. Also if you love coffee it’s so cheap!

Amazing quiet slopes, varied terrain. Definitely better for intermediate to advanced skiers than beginners, unless you are with a ski instructor. Easy to ski over to Mongenevre if advanced skier, if intermediate get a bus back. The Italians are really friendly, very helpful on the lifts if you have little kids. Food amazing on piste!

Former Olympic venue. Great lift infrastructure and plenty of well groomed pistes to ski. The town is purpose built and doesn't have the atmosphere of local towns like Sauze but the location and facilities are great.

Good resort option, not a beginner friendly ski area with limited blues and poor group ski schools (recommend you go private). Infrastructure is somewhat dated but they make do, the runs are good although not managed as well as in France. The food and drink options are phenomenal with great prices and great quality.

Fantastic resort, well suited for a big group of beginner/intermediate/expert skiers.

Lovely and quiet in January, still had plenty of fun - would definitely go back.

Lots of different areas to ski, so long as the weather allows the joining lifts to be open.
Husky experience was so much fun!

Everything was perfect!loved the panorama and quality to food and ski slopes
Nice food and nice environment

The connections to the rest of the Milky Way are somewhat cumbersome but there's just enough for a full week of skiing without having to hire a taxi or minivan to Montgenèvre.

Very good slopes, good conditions and amazing staff, highly recommend. Me and my friends had a great time with lessons and learned a lot

A nice resort and you get what you paid for but not at the top of my list of places I have been to. Many of the chairlifts do the job but are older and slow. Also many of the pistes are so narrow compared to other resorts - I would say not the easiest for beginners such as my Dad. We went in mid January and it was very quiet on the pistes but also quiet in the town where some restaurants were not open so eating out was limited. But apres at GFC is worth the visit!

Fantastic resort had the best time for my first ever snowboarding experience. Lessons were great and the people were lovely. 100% would return
