Free Easter passes for children in Courmayeur

Looking for somewhere to take the kids at Easter – and save some money?

Courmayeur in Italy has announced plans to offer free lift passes to children under 12 years old, visiting the resort between 25 March and 11 April. And all participating hotels will also not charge parents for an extra bed for a child sharing their room.

There are some regulations, of course: at least one parent must buy a lift pass at the same time. And you’ll need to stay a minimum of three nights.

Lots of hotels are taking part in the scheme. You can find out more from the lift company website (see below). Or you can arrange a stay through specialist tour operator, Momentum.

The resort is easily accessed from Geneva or Turin and is enjoying some great snowfall so far this season – settled snow bases on the upper slopes are now almost 3m, with 2m at mid-mountain.
