Pila

Ski straight into the action

Wake up in the heart of Pila with the slopes just moments from our hotel. The nearest chairlift is only around 40 metres/131 feet away, so we can be on the mountain almost as soon as you’ve finished breakfast. Spend your days skiing at your own pace, with runs to suit different abilities and the freedom to explore the resort with your fellow Solos.

Alpine adventures

Pila sits high above the Aosta Valley, surrounded by some of the Italian Alps’ most impressive scenery. Take in panoramic mountain views as you ski, with the possibility of heading out on a Ski-Away day to discover another nearby resort such as Cervinia, Courmayeur or La Thuile.

Après-ski, Italian style

When the lifts close, there’s no need to head far for a well-earned drink. Several bars and restaurants are within easy walking distance of the hotel, including traditional mountain restaurants and après-ski spots serving aperitivi, snacks, beers and wine. Spend the evening relaxing together and swapping stories from the slopes over dinner and a drink.

Essential Information

You may choose to join group ski lessons, arrange private tuition or team up with fellow Solos to explore the slopes together. Your Tour Leader will be on hand to help organise your skiing and make the most of your time in Pila.

Ski Hire
Ski equipment can be hired directly through the hotel, making it easy to get kitted out without travelling elsewhere in the resort. We strongly recommend checking your equipment carefully when you collect it and agreeing its condition with the supplier, as you are responsible for any damage during your hire period. €62 skis / €40 boots / €15 helmet for 6 days

Group ski lessons are available Monday to Friday for adults and children, with a minimum of 4 and maximum of 10 participants.

5 days: €280.00 per person

Dress Code

On a skiing holiday, dress is generally very informal, the emphasis being on comfort and warmth. We recommend that you pack a pair of skiing trousers and warm ski jacket or a waterproof shell and separate fleece lining or an all-in-one ski suit. Thermal or silk underwear is recommended. Cotton/cotton mix roll necks, T-shirts or sweat shirts; several thin layers are better than one thick layer.

Ski socks, ski gloves or mitts and a hat or headband are suggested. Where temperatures are expected to be well below zero, take a facemask or balaclava. Moon boots or waterproof walking shoes are a “must”. Suntan cream (high protective factor), lip salve, sunglasses and/or goggles are all very useful items to pack. Casual clothes are ideal for the evenings; it is unusual on skiing holidays to dress formally in the evenings.

Important Information

A reasonable level of fitness is required

Gratuities

We suggest a Group Collection to cover transfer drivers, and hotel staff of €20 per person. Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate % add on. If you choose to have ski lessons, you may also like to thank your ski instructor at the end of the week with a token of appreciation.

Passports and visas

We recommend that you check passport and visa requirements for the country you are visiting at the State Department if you have a U.S. Passport. Most countries require that your passport have at least six months validity when traveling internationally, and many require that you have one to two blank visa pages for either an entry stamp or visa. As a general rule, please check that your passport has six months validity beyond your planned trip, and if not, please renew your passport with plenty of time to provide Solos with your updated passport information by the final payment due date.

Health requirements

We recommend that you check if vaccinations are required for your destination at the CDC’s recommendations for your visited destination(s). We also recommend you purchase travel protection. A travel protection plan can often assist with medical emergencies and reimburse costs that are covered by the plan. Please verify coverage details with Solos before you travel.
