Open until April 5, 2021. The Airolo-Pesciüm resort lies at the foot of the Gotthard massif, one of the most important passes in the heart of the Alps. Thanks to the Airolo highway exit, only 200 meters from the more than 500 free car parks of the ski lifts, it only takes one hour to reach us from Lugano and 90 minutes from Milan and Zurich. Airolo can also be easily reached by train: a free shuttle bus provides a connection to the departure station. A large cable car takes 100 skiers to the middle station of Pesciüm in just 5 min. From this point, which is also the center of the ski area, you can continue with different lifts and choose the type of slopes that suit your abilities. The slopes of the ski area extend for more than 30 kilometers at an altitude between 1175 and 2250 m a.s.l., all set in a breathtaking panorama. Airolo is perfect for all winter sports lovers: beginners, intermediates, experienced skiers, and families. There are also a snowpark and three snowshoes paths

Good skiing area at Airolo with a great two-stage funicular taking you up the mountain. Mainly red and black pistes so not the best place for beginners, although there is also a simple beginners ramp. Huge self-service restaurant at the Pescium funicular stop. Sufficient free parking right at the bottom funicular stop. All very well done the Swiss -but Italian speaking- way!

Nice little museum showing how the passage south to north Europe was made and developed. The entry price of CHF 10 is a little exaggerated considering that the museum is very small!

We passed the St Gotthard pass due a traffic jam in the tunnel below. Weather was great so we enjoyed several outstanding views around the region. Is this a helpful review? Then please give me a "Thumbs up Thank FrankGeisler" by clicking the button below.
