Champorcher Πρόγνωση Χιονιού

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.
