How to get from Turin Airport to Sestriere
Turin Airport to Sestriere follows the Susa Valley toward the French border. The airport railway reaches Torino Porta Susa, where you can check a regional train westward to Oulx-Cesana-Claviere-Sestriere. Despite its name, Oulx station is in the valley and not at the resort. Continue by the published Arriva bus to Sestriere. A private pickup avoids the city interchange and suits groups with ski equipment. Confirm the accommodation district and final arrival time before reserving.
Sestriere centre and Borgata are different drop-offs; identify the nearest stop and hotel pickup.

Skiing in Sestriere: areas, altitude and pistes
Explore the Sestriere resort guide →
Sestriere is a high village at the heart of Vialattea. Its local slopes sit above the main town and Borgata, with further links toward Sansicario and other network sectors. The advertised 400 km refers to the whole ski network, including other bases, rather than the runs beside a single Sestriere hotel.
Which ski area should you choose?
Sestriere main village
Convenient central access for lessons and local slopes.
Borgata
Separate lower accommodation/lift base with its own approach.
Vialattea links
Explore toward neighbouring sectors while leaving time to return.
Piste difficulty: Beginner teaching slopes, broad intermediate runs and race terrain serve different levels. Plan a shorter local day if learning. A long linked tour needs suitable ability, the correct pass and open return lifts; do not depend on a ski connection for an evening hotel arrival.
After the transfer: Sestriere centre and Borgata are different drop-offs; identify the nearest stop and hotel pickup.
