Off the mountain

This is definitely up there as one the great party towns when it comes to the Italian Alps. There’s plenty to choose from for your adventures after-dark be it live music or a DJ in one of the many bars, or maybe head to Sauze old town, Borgo Vecchio, with its cobble streets and some wonderful little restaurants and wine bars tucked away.

Après-ski is very fun in Sauze! For something a bit different, head to the old town section of the area, which is full of character and will offer a nice change of pace - much quieter and more laid back, with some exceptionally tasty wine bars and fantastic restaurants.
