Piani D'Erna

About

Piani d’Erna sits majestically in the pre‑Alpine foothills of Lecco, inviting visitors to experience some of Lombardy’s finest winter landscapes. Known as part of the larger Piani di Bobbio‑Valtorta ski domain, it features a well‑maintained funivia (cable car) that carries guests from the town of Piani to the snow‑crusted peaks in minutes.\n\nThe resort boasts a diverse range of pistes and off‑piste trails suitable for skiers and snowboarders of all levels. From gentle beginner slopes to challenging alpine runs, the varied terrain ensures everyone can find their rhythm. In addition, the area is home to the renowned Rossignol Biathlon Experience, a high‑intensity event combining skiing and rifle shooting, making it a must‑visit for adrenaline seekers.\n\nBeyond the board, visitors can explore a host of winter activities offered throughout the domain – from classic snowshoe excursions along the Ciaspole paths to ski alpinism climbs that take seasoned athletes to the summit. Traditional mountain huts line the slopes, where visitors can savor regional dishes such as polenta, fonduta, and local cheeses.\n\nReaching the resort is straightforward: a short drive from Milan leads to the funivia stop at Via Prealpi 34, where the cable car departs between 8:30 am and 6:30 pm, weather permitting. Riders return to Lecco with panoramic views that linger long after the ride ends.
