The perfect learn to ski destination
The charming Italian resort of Cimone is not only the highest peak in the Northern Apennines (at 2,165m) but also the perfect ‘learn to ski’ resort. The slopes are virtually empty mid-week, even during the busy February half term so hardly a lift queue to worry about.

Learn to Ski Paradise
Groups begin their adventure on the excellent nursery slopes at the Passo del Lupo or the Le Polle ski areas. The progression slopes radiate out from these areas and as the students’ confidence grows through the week, the superb red runs will have the students smiling all the way down the slopes. The ski instructors are friendly and patient, and they really get the best out of the students, concentrating on their technique and building confidence on the quiet slopes. As an added bonus ski storage and hot lunches are provided on the slopes.
