The Via Lattea ski area (Milky Way) connects six world-class resorts across Italy and France:

• Sauze d’Oulx – sunny slopes and a great mix of terrain, with vibrant après-ski, and friendly locals

• Sestriere – high-altitude skiing and Olympic-level runs

• Sansicario – our favourite, sun-drenched red rollers. Great fun

• Claviere – quiet slopes and a tonne of playful, tree-lined terrain

• Cesana Torinese – the central hub linking all resorts, it’s not so snow sure at the very start & end of the season

• Montgenèvre (France) – a great day out. Takes ages to access on skis, but you have to visit on at least one day of your holiday. The Ski Away Day Coach is the cheapest, quickest way to explore the whole area.

A single lift pass gives you access to all of them, allowing you to ski two countries in one day. Plan your days based on the weather, and take a look at our Resort Guide for all our top tips.

At Monsguide, you can organise your entire ski trip in one place — from lift passes and lessons to ski hire and discounts across the resort.
