Skiing Courmayeur from Madrid
Courmayeur sits 1224–2755 m in Italy. Flying via GVA, then a 105 km transfer. About 5.4 hours door to door.
Worth knowing. The piste network is smaller than the price implies.
Pre-season — snow reliability. There is no meaningful snow on the models yet, so resorts are ranked on how snow-sure they are: altitude adjusted for latitude, glacier cover and the size of the ski area. Live scoring resumes automatically once the snow arrives. How we rank

Is it worth it from Madrid?
A week here works out 9% above the median for the 94 resorts we rank from Madrid, and it comes 87th on value.
At 5.4 hours each way this is short enough to be worth doing over a weekend, not just as a full week — which is unusual and is most of the reason to pick it over somewhere further.
For what it is worth, Courmayeur is cheapest to reach from Zurich, at about €1,259 — roughly €283 less than from Madrid.
