The Monte Bianco Ski School was established in 1936. After the War, in 1945, it resumed business making Courmayeur a main tourist attraction for winter tourists.
Today there are over 170 ski instructors specialized in various disciplines, each one capable of revealing the magic of the snow in all its beauty. Great attention is given in particular to the younger clients, to whom they dedicate their professional skills to help them to ski and have fun.
They have three offices: one is in Courmayeur village (near the depart of the Courmayeur cable car) and the two others on the ski pistes: in Plan Chécrouit, at the arrival of Courmayeur cable car and Telecabina Dolonne and the last one in Pré de Pascal at the arrival of cable car Val Veny.
Both private and group lessons are offered (for skiing and snowboarding).
Meeting with instructors is at the ski area near one of their Ski School offices.
