They say good things come in little packages and Chiesa certainly fits the bill. Set high in the Lombardy
region of Italy, this is a compact mountain that is absolutely ideal for beginners and intermediates. It's a
beautiful and sedate Alpine environment and the views are fantastic. The long, gentle resorts are great
for practicing turns and building confidence meaning this resort is perfect for school groups.
Choose this resort for:
Italian charm.
Great learning slopes.
On The Slopes
The snow record here is excellent so groups tend to enjoy top class conditions and the pistes are well maintained.
With 50kms of runs there is more than enough variety to keep groups busy for the week and the
best news is that queuing is virtually unheard of in this resort.
Snowboarders are also well catered for with a dedicated snowboard park along with a half pipe.
Off The Slopes
Chiesa has a wonderful mountain village feel with a traditional Italian atmosphere. The majority of skiers here are Italian but English is widely spoken and all the locals are incredibly friendly. Although the resort is quiet in
the evenings there are a range of local restaurants to enjoy all of which serve up tasty regional dishes.
