Evaluated by Skiresort.info, the world's largest test portal for ski resorts.
The evaluation is done as follows
Slope offering, variety of runs at the ski resort Alagna Valsesia/Gressoney-La-Trinité/Champoluc/Frachey (Monterosa Ski)
The slopes impress with their scenic diversity, generally generous width, and a varied profile. Thanks to the different orientations of the slopes, you can find sunny runs throughout the day. The excellent safety measures on the slopes are particularly noteworthy. The range of unsecured off-piste terrain is first-class and ideal for freeriders. Challenging slopes are limited, and there are no secured ski routes. Good skiers who do not have the equipment or experience for off-piste skiing may therefore not get the full value out of the area.

Interconnection information
The Wold lifts in Alagna are located about a kilometer away from the rest of the ski area.
Worth knowing
- Artificial snow-making
655 Snow cannons
95 % of the slopes have snow-making capabilities - Valley run available
There are valley runs to all feeder lifts except for the funicular from Frachey. There is also a valley run to Orsia in the Val di Gressoney. The chairlift that used to connect this area to the ski resort was closed in 2008. At the end of the valley run from Gabiet to Stafal, there is about a 300-meter walk to the lift.
Run location
- above tree line
- just above tree line
- under tree line
Longest run
- Olen-Alagna · Length 8 km · Elevation difference 1768 m
The slope is marked black in the upper section, but it is perfectly groomed and therefore not a real problem for anyone who can parallel turn. A descent from Indren (3260 m) to Alagna is not possible, and the route from Indren to Stafal is not secured.
Most difficult run
- Nera · Length 0.5 km · Elevation difference 200 m
For this short black run, you spend quite a long time on lifts (cable car from Stafal to St. Anna and chairlift to the Bettaforca Pass), which is why you usually have the Nera all to yourself.
