Ski-doo Nights in Courmayeur - Italy
In the early evening the Ice and Orange team will take you through to a lovely picturesque Italian village (through the Mont Blanc Tunnel). Several Italian ski-doo drivers will be awaiting you under a starry sky at the foot of the mountains ready to give you a pillion ride up the mountain, an exhilarating and thrilling experience!
Once you have cleared the last rise, a torch-lit runway will reveal itself, leading right up to the refuge. Here you will be received with a champagne welcome by the restaurant owner (Jacomo) and his lovely staff, who will be looking after you for the evening.
Inside the traditional alpine refuge you will be served a fantastic typical Italian 5 course dinner. The meal is followed by a strong drink from the amity cup which gets passed around. This traditional drink consists of coffee laced with brandy, sugar, lemon & orange rinds and will certainly get you warmed up ready for a boogie on the bar!
Just after midnight, you can either opt for a torch lit descent on skis (with a guide) or to descend back down by skidoo. This is an ideal way to spend the chalet’s night off!
Thanks for a top week, hospitality flawless, food amazing, and your chalet beautiful, will highly recommend you guys to all. My highlight was the champagne at the top of the mountain to calm my nerves after the ski-dooing!! Hopefully see you both again at some point.
