Limone is a romantic village with great skiing and proximity to the Riviera.

The ski area stretches over three valleys and the lifts consist of a mixture of museum pieces to modern lifts/gondolas.

There are about 10 restaurants/rifugios on the slopes and you will spend a considerable amount of time at these outdoor cafes 🍺☀️

There are even more restaurants in the village, from luxury and Michelin to traditional restaurants. Regardless of the price level, it is really affordable (compared to Sweden)

The slopes are located in the north and are relatively snow-sure.
Easily accessible off-piste where the snow lies untouched for weeks after snowfall (the Italians stay on the slopes)

There are nice summit tours in the area. The easiest way is to pull on the skins at the top lift and you will reach a fantastic valley. usually stable conditions (low avalanche risk).
From the peaks you can see the Mediterranean shimmering in the distance.

There are also four forts at the 2,000m level from the Napoleonic era. Clearly interesting tourist destinations.
When the snow is good, you can go down to the French side to Vievola and take the train back to Limone

It is about 40 minutes by car down to the Mediterranean so Après ski on the beach is completely possible ☀️

Getting here:
The easiest way is to fly to Nice.

From there you take the train to Ventimiglia where you change trains to Limone. Or 100 kilometers by car from Nice

You can also take the train from Turin or Milan (the train stops in the middle of the village)
