Champoluc is in Valle d'Aosta (Monterosa Ski), Italy, with the base at 1568 m and the top at 3275 m.
Champoluc has not announced its opening date for the 2026/27 season yet. Our own estimate, based on the resort's altitude and its past seasons, puts it around November 21, 2026: that is a forecast, not an announcement. The resort confirms the date each autumn and we keep it up to date at https://www.caranva.app/en/esqui/fechas-apertura/champoluc.
Champoluc is expected to close for the 2026/27 season on April 26, 2027. The real date depends on how the snow holds up at the top (3275 m) late in the season, and the resort usually announces it only a few weeks ahead: the up-to-date version is at https://www.caranva.app/en/esqui/fechas-apertura/champoluc.
It changes daily and the resort itself publishes it every morning: snow depth by altitude, open runs and open lifts. The Champoluc daily report and forecast are at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/italia/champoluc. When it blows hard, the most exposed lifts are usually the upper ones (3275 m), so it is worth checking before driving up.
Between 1568 and 3275 metres, a vertical drop of 1707 m. That difference is why the snow is not the same across the whole resort on the same day: the upper slopes hold up better late in the season, while the lower part, at 1568 m, is the first to feel rain or warm weather. That is why the Champoluc report is read by altitude band, at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/italia/champoluc.
Champoluc has 180 km of pistes and 19 lifts, between 1568 and 3275 m of altitude.
On Caranva you book the full kit for Champoluc — skis, boots and poles, or a snowboard if you prefer — at https://www.caranvasports.com/products/champoluc-ski-rental: you pick the dates and give your height, weight, shoe size and level, and the gear is waiting assembled with the bindings set to those figures. You pay online, you skip the sizing counter, and you can swap the gear in the shop if something does not fit. The alternative is walking into a shop at the resort on a first-come basis, which over a bank holiday or at Christmas means queuing for whatever is left.
In the same valley or the next one: Alagna Valsesia (180 km of pistes, up to 3275 m). Comparing their top altitudes helps when snowfall is scarce: the ones that top out higher tend to open earlier and hold on longer at the end of the season.
