Sestriere, which hosted the 2006 Winter Olympics, has much to offer all year round. In the winter months, the slopes around the resort suit skiers and snowboarders of all levels. There is cross-country skiing, heli-skiing, ice skating, motor sledging, dog sledging and snowshoeing.

There is a huge range of activities for summer visitors; varied mountain biking routes, as well as tennis, rafting, golf, horse riding and swimming. The activity centre offers stunt biking, skateboarding, roller skating and much more. For something more relaxing, try Le Sorgenti del Mendia spa (20 minutes drive) in Pragelato.
