The Via Lattea, known in English as the Milky Way, is one of the most spectacular ski areas in Europe. Made up of six resorts and surrounded by some breathtaking scenery, it attracts skiers, snowboarders and non-skiers from all over the world. There really is something for everyone here from the charming tranquillity of Sansicario and Cesana to the vibrant nightlife of Sauze d’Oulx. No matter the length of your stay, there will be something new to experience in each and every moment. 

The town of Sestriere has to be the highlight of the region though. Called the Capital of the Milky Way, this is an ideal base for visitors to explore the area. Since the centre is located at 2,035 metres, there is plenty of high altitude skiing in the nearby vicinity. There are also plenty of pistes further afield for those seeking something a little less difficult. The town itself has a wide selection of rustic Italian restaurants to be enjoyed and savoured as well. 

World Class Ski Chalets in Milky Way

Due to the popularity of Milky Way, there are plenty of accommodation choices in the area’s six resorts. This includes a fine selection of hotels and chalets suitable for travellers of all types. If you are seeking the ultimate in luxury and style during your stay, we recommend Baita 1697. This 17th century Piedmontese farmhouse can sleep up to 18 people and is found at an altitude of 1,600 metres in a hamlet above Sestriere. As well as easy access to over 400 km of pisted runs, this property features critically acclaimed interior decor and a host of extras including a film/music library, wood-burning open fire and wooden hot tub.
