Pila Ski School
Resorts: Pila
The Pila Ski School is located at 1,800 metres above sea level and offers a unique experience in the heart of the Alps. The breathtaking view from Pila includes some of the highest peaks in Europe, including Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn, Monte Rosa, Grand Combin and Gran Paradiso.
The school is just few minutes from Aosta and is also easily accessible via the Aosta-Pila cable car.
The Pila Ski School was founded in the 1949/1950 season thanks to the idea of Piero Rosset and Mario Bechaz, the school's first director. The school's first location was in a room at the Lion Noir hotel.
In those years, the demand for instructors was not very high and the activity was limited to Sundays and public holidays.
The Pila Ski School offers a private ski school for learning to ski in complete safety, two ski and equipment hire shops and a sports shop.
Ski lessons and equipment hire can be booked on the website www.scuoladiscipila.com
Languages spoken: Italian, French, English, Spanish and Russian.
