Downhill skiing
in La Salle
Immersed in the prestigious alpine scenery of the Aosta Valley, La Salle is the best place to have fun on skis and filling up with adrenaline. Its location makes it a strategic destination even in winter for all ski lovers. The famous ski resorts of Courmayeur (15 km from the centre of La Salle) and La Thuile (20 km from the centre of La Salle) are just a few kilometres away. In addition, the main ski resorts in Valle d’Aosta are all within easy reach, allowing the most daring ski safaris to last several days!
La Salle, home of champions…
Many ski enthusiasts already know this, but others are pleasantly surprised to discover that Federica Brignone is one of our citizens. Our Alpine skiing champion, one of the top athletes on the Italian national team, has built up an incredible list of trophies over the years, including an Olympic medal, a rainbow medal, an overall World Cup (she was the first Italian to win the trophy) and two speciality medals…
“La Salle is the place where I recharge to face the challenges of my everyday life. It is the ideal place to be outdoors, do sport and live quietly, but very close to famous and beautiful resorts such as Courmayeur and La Thuile, my favourite places to go skiing. From the playground of Maison Gerbollier you can enjoy a truly unique view of Mont Blanc, which for me is always exciting. La Salle for me is sun, nature and… home!”
