  Reddi from UNITED KINGDOM
  

  Just returned. The skiing is fantastic, although it is a big shame the Punta Indren run in Alagna is not working. However, the queues were awful, particularly at weekends. The queue for the gondola was at least 40 minutes, then we had to queue for a further 30 minutues to get the cable car to the very top! Then some chairlifts had queues of 20-30 minutes - all became too much and took away the enjoyment. Feb 2008.

  This is the "special" one! Relatively unknown but enjoys over 180 kilometres of skiing and three valleys, together with their unique villages, this place is fabulous. It is, however, well-known to hardened skiers and mountaineers for its off-piste challenges and high mountain terrain (4554metres). More recently, with new lifts, the area is now realising its true potential and is being discovered by recreational skiers who are able to enjoy the area's special charms. The people, scenery,food and wine combine to produce a truly wonderful,atmospheric ambience. I would like to thank all at www.ski-monterosa.com for introducing me to this unique village. Go now!

  Great skiing in Italys 3-Valleys, Alagna village brings one back in time -quiet, basic, good food and people, reasonable prices. Everyone is complaining that owners have shutdown the top lift to Punta Indren, thereby closing half of the off-piste terrain. Rumour is they may build a new lift in a couple of years ?! This makes it difficult for local busines. For now stay in the Gressoney or Champoluc valleys to maximize ski opportunities. I'll certainly be back (when Indren peak opens ) !

  Guys, it is an amazing place... snowboarders and skiers are very welcome in here. I organize ski trip in this location... because I am a Gressoney "dude". www.skiwithmax.com check it out and let me know. Last year we had a fantstic time!!! Gressoney and Chapoluc are included in the package. Night in a refuge at 3000 mt (Refuge Guglielmina is like an hotel with a restaurant and the view that you will remain gobsmacked!!!) Great Fun.. check www.skiwithmax.com. Ciao for now!

  One of the best freeride resorts of the world. Incredible terrain for all kind of off-piste skiing. From nice runs to very dangerous steep coloirs and glaciers that require a lot of experience in the high alpine environment. Even after days of good weather you can find unbeaten tracks far beyond the crowds. Very good food (Italy !!!) and very nice people (very open minded). We are always staying there in March for two weeks.

  The skiing is unlimited without the crowds. The wine bar in the town of Alagna is as much a reason to visit as the miles of ski terrain with the option of staying up in a 'Rifugio' or in a hotel in Alagna.
