When looking at ski holidays in Sestriere the main plus points that you will initially notice are the resort height (for snow security) and the amount if skiing (400km of piste). With a resort height of 2035m you can be assured of snow all the way through from early December through until mid to late April. However, another plus point that might not be not obvious up front is the value for money that is on offer. The full area Milky Way lift pass is only about £150 per adult, which for a major European ski area with a modern lift system and a vast amount of skiing is an absolute bargain. In the major Swiss and French escorts you are normally paying £200-£300 per adult these days.
Sestriere is in a fantastic location right in the middle of the Milky Way ski area. The neighboring resorts are Sauxe d'Oulx, Sansicario and Claviere.

In total there are 400km of piste on offer with a great variety of skiing for beginner, intermediate and advanced skiers. It is a purpose-built resort and in fact was the first purpose-built resort in the Alps. Originally built by Fiat’s Giovanni Agnelli in the 1930s it was all about snow security which is why it was built at such a high altitude. Sestriere is not the prettiest of villages but as is normally the resorts it is very functional and accessing the skiing is easy from most of the accommodation options on offer with iSki.

There is some great off piste skiing in Sestriere and the Milky Way as a whole. There is loads of easily accessible off piste in Sestriere where you can just hop off the side of the piste to catch some lines in the fresh snow fall. Some of the best of piste in the area can be found on the face heading down from Sauze d'Oulx towards to Sestriere. There are some great routes down underneath the gondola that takes you to Sestriere from Sauze d'Oulx and there is a brilliant bowl leading to a tree lined valley on the other side. However, be prepared for a slight walk at the end. There are also some awesome tree lined routes which run all the way down fro the highest slopes on the Sauze side all the way down to Jouvenceaux. But be careful as you are not meant to ski off piste in Itlay without a local guide! Ski patrol keep a close eye on the goings on but it does mean that the off piste does not get tracked out so you can still get fresh lines up to and beyond a week of a snowfall.
