As it falls
We know our snow. Here's how the fluffy stuff is looking at this resort.
Base Camp in Cervinia offers a stylish selection of studios and apartments in the peaceful Cielo Alto area. Featuring modern décor and fresh furnishings, it’s a great choice for families and couples looking for a quieter location while still being close to the action. The accommodation provides comfort and convenience in a scenic setting above the main resort.
When conditions are right, you can ski directly onto the Cielo Alto red run, giving you quick and easy access to Cervinia’s main ski lifts and village centre.
Facilities
There's a small shop nearby for all your essentials but for Winter 2026/27, this will come under new management and we are unsure of their plans. There is a large supermarket just a five minute bus ride away, down in Cervinia, the bus stops just outside the apartment.
The bus will also link you to the main lifts area, ski school and ski hire shop. If you don't fancy the bus, the bottom half of the Cieloalto red run is directly outside and links to Breuil-Cervinia, then it's about a three-minute walk to the main lift. It's also possible to ski right back to the apartments if the snow conditions are right.
The Base Camp bar and restaurant is only 100 metres away and offers a continental buffet breakfast and a three course dinner in the evenings. The restaurant serves classic Italian food, and the pizzas are the real deal. The bar sells a selection of local and international wines, beers, soft drinks and coffee.
If you are self-catering, the site has its own delicatessen which sells the basics, from milk, bread and pasta to pre-cooked meals. It opens from 07:30-10:30 & 17:00-21:00 - subject to change.
Important information for Winter 2026/27: The nearby supermarket and restaurant will come under new management. It is unclear at this stage what the new owners plan to do. We will update once we have more information but for now, Base Camp apartments will only be bookable as self catering.
In Italy, it’s common for hotels not to provide tap water during meal service. Still and sparkling bottled water can be easily purchased locally.

High-altitude skiing with 350km pistes in the full international area, Cervinia is perfect for intermediate skiers with long open pistes. You can inter-country ski to Zermatt in Switzerland surrounded by stunning scenery with the backdrop of the Matterhorn.
As one of Europe’s highest ski resorts, great snow conditions and an impressive glacier come as standard. What truly makes this resort stand out is the towering site of the Matterhorn and just how close it is. That mixed with the rest of the incredible surrounding landscape and you have yourself the perfect setting for what is simply an amazing ski resort.
Cervinia is known for its extensive ski area and as you head up the mountain to the high peaks of the Plateau Rosa you will appreciate the impressive lift system which connects you to Valtournenche as well as the famous Swiss resort of Zermatt.
Almost an endless network of runs means there is plenty of variety and places to explore as well as some superb off-piste runs. With an International ski pass you have the best of both worlds, so definitely worth it if you want to get the miles in and explore the full area.
