Nicknamed the 'balcony of the Alps', Sauze d'Oulx is a lively, popular resort within the huge Milky Way ski area, offering access to 400km of piste in both Italy and France. There's plenty going on within Sauze, with a great variety of shops, restaurants and cafes. And the lovely old town is worth exploring, with its cobbled streets and Romanesque churches. The skiing is great too - the resort hosted the freestyle skiing events at the 2006 Winter Olympics and is particularly great for intermediates.

Skiing in Sauze d'Oulx
The sun-drenched, tree-lined slopes mean that this is one of the best resorts to be in should bad weather hit. And snow-making facilities cover most of the slopes. Like the rest of the Milky Way, the resort is characterised by wide open spaces and panoramic runs. This is heaven for intermediates with plenty of red runs, although there's some great skiing for beginners too. And intermediates will enjoy the easy connection to Sestriere and its famous black runs.

Supporting you every step of the way
Creating your perfect ski trip
Your quote will be put together by an experienced Tour Adviser who’ll be an expert in skiing trips and knows our resorts really well. They’ll work with you to create a trip to suit your group’s needs and budget.
Launching your trip to parents and students
The next step is to get your trip approved and get students signed up to it. Our ‘Trip Launch Pack’ will help you with this step. This is full of resources (all free to download) designed to make your life easier at this crucial point in the trip planning process.
After you’ve booked
Once you’ve booked, your dedicated Itinerary Coordinator will start work on the finer details. They’ll make sure your ski lessons, ski hire and après-ski activities are all sorted and they’ll take on most of the other admin tasks for your trip (so you can look forward to the trip as much as the kids).
Support while you’re away
While you’re abroad, you’ll be looked after by a Halsbury rep based in your resort. And Halsbury HQ staff will be on the end of the phone 24 hours a day. You’ll get a final info pack before you go with all the info you need, plus access to all your trip documents on the Vamoos app.
After your trip
When you return from your trip, we’ll ask you to complete a detailed feedback survey, so we can continue our service. This is also the perfect time to start planning your next trip, so you can give parents plenty of time to pay for it (and make it easier for you).
