A brief overview
Combining a perfect mix of old and new, La Thuile is placed just
off the Valle d'Aosta on the border with France and over the hill from its
neighbour the French resort of La Rosiere. Still largely undiscovered by the
British skier the resort is split between the traditional mountain village and
the modern Planibel ski complex.
