Prato Nevoso reviews

There is plenty of skiing both above and below the tree line and the scope would not disgrace a much bigger resort. Piste maintenance is excellent. The lift company do a particularly good job, combing the pistes and making snow when necessary.

The link to Artesina has revolutionized the appeal of the area and the ski pass is very good value. On the Artesina side, the skiing is more challenging whereas Prato Nevoso is easier for beginners and early intermediates. There are plenty of wide, long runs which invite ambitious skiers to work hard. For strong intermediates there are some tremendous reds, especially over the Artesina side where theres an FIS rated black and some exhilarating crui

The pistes are almost all wide, even the steep reds and the views are to die for. The drag lifts have been replaced by chairs, the fast 6 man chair is great even when there are Q's. It's easy to ski over to the neighbouring resrt of Artesina, which has some challenging pistes, also a few drag lifts, especially the long one back. Well worth a visit though. Prato Nevoso is a great resort for intermediates and beginners with lots of ski schools to choose from. The snowboard park is a great idea, making it much safer for everyone.

I found Prato Nevoso to be a great laid back resort off the beaten track for the main names in the Alps, and more relaxed for it. The pistes are wide, fast, easy and sunny and there seem to be a lot of fast new lifts to get up the slopes.

The nightlife was minimal and we had to travel quite far down the mountain to get to a little nightclub (kind of) which was pretty empty but still there was a big group of us so still a laugh.

So in summary - great for a relaxed and relaxing holiday, less good for extreme skiers and apres ski hedonists.
