Ski torchlight processions
and motorized sleigh downhill races <

We arrange evening events after ski slide closure to live your stay in the mountains in a different way.

We arrange for our guests night ski torchlight processions or motorized sleigh downhill races. Guided by the full moon, it is really wonderful to make a light snake winding through the empty ski slides. Moreover, with motorized sleigh downhill races, you can feel the emotion of riding a motorcycle, but on the snow. Caressed by the fresh air and guided by these powerful engines, you will go up and down along the snow-covered slopes of our wonderful mountains . (tramonto) Two different programmes are available and you can either start your activity in the afternoon and go down after dinner or decide to go up by motorized sleight for dinner and then ski downhill or go down by motorized sleigh or by snowmobile.

Activity description:
Our snow vehicles will wait for you in Dolonne, small hamlet at a distance of about 700 m from Courmayeur. Four motorized sleighs will transport two people each as far as our refuge in 15 minutes. A snowmobile will transport ten people to the same destination in 30 minutes (the use of this latter vehicle strictly depends on the snow conditions). The motorized sleighs will go down to the plain to transport the rest of the group and in case the skis for the downhill race. The estimated transport time for an average group of 30 people is 1 hour. The first comers, awaiting the rest of the group, will immediately be at their ease with a sparkling aperitif in the cosy atmosphere of our refuge. After dinner our guests will taste our grolla served in the typical friendship cup and our alpine guide will form the group for the ski downhill race to the village of Dolonne following the Plan Checrouit - Dolonne ski slide . otherwise back to the village by motorized sleigh!
