Italy welcomes skiers to their alpine paradise! After all, the southern rim of the Alps is Northern Italy's backyard. To the west is Mont-Blanc, the highest mountain in Europe, which reaches an altitude of over 4000 meters, and the famed Matterhorn that straddles the Italian-Swiss border. To the east, ski aficionados find a unique landscape characterized by the fascinating Dolomite range, one of the most beautiful and picturesque mountain lines in the world.
