Sansicario Ski Trip
from £749 pp
Sansicario is a meticulous development on the huge Milky Way circuit with excellent access to 400km of skiing. It's perfectly positioned at the centre of a huge natural bowl, offering masses of skiing and good connections to Sestriere, Sauze and Claviere. Like most purpose-built developments, its site was chosen carefully for snow security and good slopes. The skiing is distinguished by scenic motorways through larch woods and long, testing reds all the way to the village.
The links to the Milky Way, one of the biggest circuits in the world, are now very simple. To the left lies Sauze d'Oulx with its high bowl and long, sunny intermediate runs. Off to the right is Sestriere with its World Cup pedigree and massive scope. All the different villages have a good mixture of skiing in their own right but the prevailing theme is friendly, recreational skiing with the laid back-style, typical of Italy.
As one of the main host resorts of the 2006 Turin Olympics, Sansicario received substantial investment to modernise the lifts and add extra snowmaking. Now that the huge Olympic Circus has moved on, "Joe Public" gets the benefit!
Sansicario village is a small but well designed ski station. Gradually descending galleries of apartments and a shopping precinct are all connected by covered walkways. It's totally traffic free, so the village is relaxing and safe, and an ideal choice for groups and families.
