Ideally located next to the main Crest gondola, the Hotel de Champoluc offers doorstep skiing and a warm welcome from the team.  

Doorstep skiing

Hotel de Champoluc is at the skier's end of the village centre. It's pretty much ski in ski out, just by the bottom of the home-run piste. Right next door is the main Crest gondola and the hire shop so you can make the most of all the Aosta Valley has to offer.

Welcoming team

The hotel is run by owner Max and his team who can't wait to welcome you for your Inghams trip to Champoluc. There's a real sense of authenticity thanks to the Italian team so you really feel like you're holiday. The hotel is shared with guests from our sister company Esprit.

Our Inghams Rep will take care of all your skiing needs, sharing the best runs, après and more to ensure you have a fabulous time.

There's a really nice feeling to this hotel, with traditional Alpine wood features welcoming you in. The bar and dining rooms are a great setting for afternoon tea and chilling out, followed by a lovely evening meal.

Without a doubt, Champoluc is the most popular resort in the hidden gem that is the Monterosa ski area in Italy. This is a haven for those who are looking to take their skiing and snowboarding off the beaten path in an authentic Italian setting. There’s a good range of shops, bars and patisseries to enjoy as well as the Monterosa spa located at the top end of town next to the woodland park, perfect if you need a day’s rest and fancy a bit of pampering.

Skiing and snowboarding in Champoluc

The ski area continues to surprise even the most competent skiers and boarders every year for many reasons. Firstly, not only are the pistes extremely well maintained but majority of the season they feel empty compared to the busy slopes in neighbouring countries.

You have three extensive ski areas which are covered with one lift pass; Champoluc, Gressoney and Alagna which are linked by a modern lift system throughout the valleys.

The majority of the slopes are aimed towards intermediate and advanced skiers but the real star of the show is the mass of off-piste areas. True powder hunters will want to head towards the Punta Indren lift and hit up the un-pisted terrain, just make sure you have the correct equipment as it’s not for the faint hearted.

Prebookable ski guiding

Enjoy a stress-free tour of the local ski area and get your bearings on the first morning day of your holiday with a local qualified guide. Get insight into the best runs and places to ski on the mountain as well as some useful pointers along the way to improve technique.

Where to stay in Champoluc

Like all of the villages in the area, Champoluc is filled with rustic charm and is beautiful to explore, especially as you follow the walkway alongside the river which flows all the way through the village. 

We have a great range of accommodation on offer here, from the Inghams-run Hotel De Champoluc with doorstep skiing to excellent 3-5* hotels.

Bars and restaurants in Champoluc

At the weekend, Champoluc is a popular destination with the Italian locals who travel up from Milan and Turin, and the whole resort comes to life with après culture.

As you come off the mountain the home run is next to the ski hire shop, so you can drop off your skis and join in the fun.
