On the Italian side of the Monte Rosa Massif, each valley has its own ski resorts and it is possible to ski from one valley to the next using the ski lifts, which go up as high as 3820 mts.
There is a wide variety of untracked skiing to be done on vast terrain at all altitudes, depending on the weather and the snow conditions, either up on the glaciers and high snow fields or down below tree-line.
The imposing summits of this massif are all over 4000 mts high, Matterhorn, Breithorn, Castor, Polux, Lyskamm and the various peaks of Monte Rosa. Some of them can be reached on touring skis or by helicopter, to highlight the week and descend 2400 vertical metres.
