Facilities
Zuba is fortunate to work with a collection of charming accommodation across Gressoney St. Jean, Gressoney La Trinitè and Staffal.
Ski Passes
The ski pass booking system in the Monterosa works on the basis that the earlier ski passes are booked, the better the price. Ski passes booked within 10 days of your trip are likely to cost more than those bought in advance.
The Zuba team will ask you for the relevant information as soon as your accommodation is secured, so that we can make a swift booking for you.
Equipment Hire
Zuba works with Ambaradanspitz rental shop in Staffal.
Situated at the head of the valley, the shop is close to the Hotel Nordend. Carlos and Ezio will make sure that you have all the kit you need.
Guiding and Instruction
Zuba have partnered with Gressoney guides to provide the best guides for you to experience this massive off-piste skiing playground.
There is no better and safer way to explore this wonderful area than under the expert guidance of our local mountain guides.
Get in touch with the Zuba team and we can book suitable guiding for your trip.
Ski School
Gressoney has different ski schools for each of the three villages. We work with them all and can assist you to arrange lessons for you, your family and friends.
We also arrange off-piste instruction where more capable piste skiers can be shown the skills and techniques required to ski off piste.
