Winter activities

Alpine skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, heli-skiing...

Just 300 metres from the hotel, the Breuil-Cervinia ski resort is a spectacle of summits and exhilarated skiers flying down the mountain. Situated on the Southern face of the Matterhorn, bathed in constant sunshine, it is both one of the most beautiful, highest

and largest in the world. Its 360 km of slopes reach up to Klein Matterhorn, at 3900 metres, and carry experienced skiers to Valtournenche or Zermatt on the Swiss side, all the while giving them the rare privilege of never having to ski the same run twice.

Summer activities

In summer, this preserved nature returns to its roots. The golfers enjoy practising on 18 holes - the highest course in Italy and one of the highest in Europe. Summer skiing on the Plateau Rosa. Sport excursions and mountain biking trips. Dodge the torrents and

waterfalls amongst the mountain scenery, with ibex, chamois and marmots accompanying you on your walk. Laze in the pastures, decorated seasonally with

rhododendrons and edelweiss, or enjoy the sun’s warmth in the hotel grounds, with only the housedog to bring you back to reality, just in time for an aperitif.

Golf

The project of the Architect Luigi Rota Caremoli unfolds in a natural landscape which is unique in the world, at the foot of Mount Matterhorn. The enlargement from 9 to 18 holes has marked a new beginning. After 54 years of glorious history of the old course, opened in 1955, it is among the first fifteen golf courses in Italy affiliated to the Italian Golf Federation. The course, a PAR 69 of 5300 metres, makes the Golf Club of Cervino fully eligible to enter into the most important clubs of the Alps.

The Golf Club of Cervino celebrated half a century of affiliation to the Italian Golf Federation in 2005. Designed by Donald Harradine in the early fifties, with its 2050 metres of altitude it is one of the highest 18- hole golf courses in Europe.
