Visitor Reviews of Alagna
Ian MacGregor from New Zealand writes:
I stayed at St Jacques this year and Gressonay La Trinite last year and thoroughly enjoy the Monte Rosa ski area.
Another reviewer is wrong when saying that you cannot get from Alagna to Champoluc and return in a day. I did the reverse this year easily. I made sure I started early, had good weather, good conditions, and had time to spare at the end of the day.
If need be keep an eye on your watch and set a turn around time that will give you say an hour to spare in getting back to your base.
