Cervinia has many bars, shops and restaurants where you can try the local Aosta Valley specialities. This is a paradise for skiers with up to 300km of winter pistes and summer skiing on the Plateau Rosa. Summer visitors can enjoy around of golf on a 9-hole course or walking on marked trails. The casino of St. Vincent is 30km away.

Cervinia is one of Italy's most important resorts and has carved a niche as a rather upmarket enclave, perhaps in part because of its cross-border link to Zermatt in Switzerland. The resort is named after Monte Cervino, the Italian name for the Matterhorn, which it sits below. It is open for winter sports through the summer months with access to Zermatt's glacier skiing with some on its side of the border too. The summer vertical is usually the biggest available anywhere, just as the huge winter one is - providing a 15km (8.5-mile) long run.
