With the opening of the ski lifts at Bielmonte, skiers – long distance, medium level or children trying it for the very first time – can enjoy the peacefulness of a unique and welcoming natural setting. Many skiers who come to Bielmonte are laid back about their sport: they prefer to avoid queues and the jet set and spend a couple of quiet hours on the slopes and then devote themselves to other pleasures, such as good food.
Oasi Zegna can count on the offerings of two different ski schools. The Scuola Sci Bielmonte Oasi Zegna has been working since 1956 and has 40 or so instructors for people wishing to perfect their style or learn this winter sport par excellence from scratch. All the ski techniques - snowboarding, Telemark, cross-country, fun carving, racing – are practiced here. The School is a promoter of the Progetto Educativo Sci (P.E.S.), addressing schools and funded by Regione Piemonte to include winter sports in young people’s education.

Specializing in teaching the disabled, this School organizes a course, SciaLIS, also for the deaf, to develop 360° communication, and the non-competitive slalom of the same name.
