We visited Champorcher in February of 2019 just for the day. The drive up from Pont St Martin is really nice and the Valley really lovely. The Cable Car is 5 minutes on from Champorcher at Chardoney and is an attractive old village with a few bars and a couple of hotels. Unfortunately, the snowfall was less than recent years and upon arrival we noticed a few runs were closed including the long black down to Chardoney which looked quite testing from our view going up in the old gondola. With a few of the runs being closed we expected slushy and pretty basic skiing to be had but were really surprised. It was a Saturday and quite busy with day trippers and school ski clubs but basically just used the 2 lifts up after the gondola. The resort is, basically, a big bowl though very pretty and the skiing was quite challenging and steeper than we had expected and the snow was pretty good. Only a couple of canteen style restaurants to be had but plenty to keep any visitors busy for a weekend or 3 day break and i'd imagine very good for families. There is a long piste set aside also for ski tourers up past the Rifugio Dondena that would be great to try if we'd have had time. But would certainly recommend a weekend without hesitation. We stayed just outside of Champorcher in the bed and breakfast: De Grand Maman run by the very friendly Massimiliano which again we would recommend without hesitation.
