Ski holidays in Champoluc are ideal for skiers who want empty pistes, high altitude skiing, a pretty ski village and excellent value for money. It is not the biggest ski area and it does not have loads of après ski but the 180km of piste and skiing all the way up to 3275m makes for a great ski area. The region in which Champoluc is located is called the Monterosa Ski Area and the other main resorts in the area are Gressoney and Alagna. It is spread over 3 valleys which are all interlinked via piste or lift and it is one of the most snow secure ski area in Italy, given the height that you can ski up too.

It is still a very pretty village fully of traditional architecture and as you would expect from an Italian ski resort there is a good selection of quality restaurants to choose from. The lift system is high-speed and modern and it is rarely that you will ever have to queue for a lift. Even during the February school holiday peak dates you will hardly ever have to wait long to get on a lift.

One of the most outstanding features of Champuloc and the Monterosa ski area, is the amount of easily accessible off-piste there is. The best off-piste in the area is on either side of the ridge between Gressoney and Alagna. From the top of Indren you can drop off in a number of off piste directions. There is also a marked itinerary which has a vertical drop of 1000m down to the midstation of the Gressoney lifts. In the 3rd valley over from Champoluc (leading down to Alagna) there is a managed free ride area so if you are looking for some off piste action but are concerned about safety if you have never down much powder riding before, then this is a great area to head for.

The après ski in Champoluc is pretty low key compare odd to a lot of European resorts. It if definitely not a place to go if you are looking for a week of skiing all day and partying all night, but there are still quite a few bars to choose from if you want a nice social drink after a long day on the slopes. Bruno's is always a popular place to stop as it is the last après ski bar on the mountain, whilst West Road Pub is a popular choice in the village.
