Campo Blenio - Ghirone

Campo Blenio - Ghirone is a small ski area in the Valle di Blenio in Ticino, aimed at families and beginners. The lower part of the area, served by a double platter lift, is ideal for newcomers thanks to its gentle slopes, while the upper part, served by a ski lift, offers somewhat more challenging pistes for more advanced skiers. The offer is rounded off by a sledging run, a cross-country trail, snowshoe routes and an ice rink.

Families and Kids

The gentle lower slopes served by a double platter lift make the area well suited to beginners and families. A sledging run served by a magic carpet is located near the food outlets and the car park, and there is a children's playground with day and season tickets. The ski school offers courses and equipment rental for children.

Food and drinks

The Servisol Greina restaurant in Casa Greina has 110 indoor seats and a terrace facing the snow park and sledging run, with baby-changing facilities, high chairs and a microwave. The Osteria da Camp on the slopes serves traditional Ticino dishes and vegan options all year round, while Bar Cupola offers après-ski with sandwiches, pizzas and hot drinks. The Fopp-Zott snack bar in the upper part of the area serves snacks and hot drinks when snow conditions allow or by reservation.
