Winter Sports - Pian della Regina

Category: Winter Sports

Among the first winter resorts opened in the province of Cuneo, towards the middle of last century, Crissolo-Pian della Regina is the modern ski district of Monviso, not far from the source of the River Po. A chair-lift creates a direct link between the centre of Crissolo and the high mountain systems on the Granero face, where other structures make it possible to quickly reach the ski runs of Pian della Regina, where there is also a 3 km cross-country skiing circuit. Artificial snow systems cover the Pra Grant and Granero Lungo tracks, measuring 800 and 1500 m long respectively. The opportunities offered by Monviso, the “Stone King” of the Cuneo mountains, which simply mustn’t be missed include, numerous downhill skiing itineraries open from January to June and accessible using the Sella and Giacoletti Refuges, open in spring, as a base.
