La Thuile is an up and coming resort with some great skiing. Over 150 km of pistes are on offer with a good mix of runs and you can ski over into France to La Rosiere all on one ski pass. Also included in the ski pass is the possibility to ski 2 days at other resorts in the Aosta valley with a free ski bus to Courmayeur and a public bus to Pila. Due to it's ratio of low number of hotel beds(approx 2000) to it's very efficient high lift capacity(50000 skiers per hour)queueing in La Thuile is never a problem. The north facing exposure and the resort's reputation as a "snow hole" ensures that even the lowest routes down to the village rarely suffer poor conditions. In fact, for the last few seasons the runs down to the village have remained in good condition right up to the season's end on the 25th April each year. The on-mountain facilities in La Thuile have improved greatly over the past few seasons with the opening of some great new restaurants. Off the slopes there is adequate slope side accommodation and there are good restaurants too. The night life is not the best and is more subdued due to the low number of hotel beds in resort but one thing you can be sure of is a genuine welcome back for years to come. La Thuile is a seriously under-rated resort.

Visitor Reviews of La Thuile
ERIKA from Italy writes:
I’ve been in La Thuile many times.
Wonderful runs for all abilities, good weather, no queue for lifts.
In 2012 I stayed in Hotel Maison de Neige. Wonderful place overlooking La Thuile ski runs n. 7 and 4.
Guests can reach the hotel by snow trucks or snowmobiles supplied by the hotel and they have the luxury of waking up, having breakfast and going skiing when everybody else is still asleep.
Good indoor and outdoor wellness area.
