La Thuile is one of my favorite places for skiing in
the Italian alps for a lot of reasons, but first because thanks to its
peculiar position snow
is great even in spring.

However, like any place La Thuile has lots of pros
and a few cons. So here are a few tips to fully enjoy skiing in this
awesome resort.

• Best snow: usually powder snow – even in
  March/April – can be found at Belvedere, San Bernardino and Fourclaz

• Great slopes for expert skiers: La Thuile is one of
  the few ski resort I visited so far offering a good number of ‘black‘ slopes for expert skiers.
  My favorites are: N. 3 Franco Berthod, N. 2 Diretta and N. 25 Belvedere,
  where I usually have great fun!
  Facing weather conditions: La Thuile is often cold
  (that’s the price to pay for good snow conditions ) and can occasionally be very windy. Thus,
  no matter the sun and the temperature in the valley, my advice is
  ‘always keep what you need to feel warm’. If you’re not planning
  suicide, better always taking with you hat, scarf
  and good gloves! Chair lift over a windy day could
  simply kill you!
