This year the Open Season Night will be held in Prato Nevoso: 24 hours of non-stop skiing with ski lifts open from 6 pm on Tuesday 7 December until 6 pm on Wednesday 8 December.
The most competitive will also be able to participate in the Ski Marathon: the 14-hour marathon that will establish a new record of descents on the slopes of Prato Nevoso. Each participant will be assigned a special ski pass that will monitor the number of ascents made: starting at 6 pm on Tuesday, ending at 8 am on Wednesday. Registration fee: 20 euros including race pack, skipass valid for the whole night and monitoring of the descents during all 14 hours. To beat the record, the greatest number of descents on the Prato Nevoso ski slopes will have to be made. The ski pass assigned to each participant is nominative and will be used to determine the number of ascents (and consequently the number of descents) made. The winner will be awarded on Wednesday 8 December at 3 pm at the RDS village in the Prato Nevoso basin.
Gian Luca Oliva, Chief Executive Officer of Prato Nevoso spa declared: "We wanted to preserve the magic of the Open season that for years has characterized our ribbon cutting of the season. It would not have been possible to organize a huge stage with the most loved artists in Italy. Italy. So we decided to move the ski party: with a single marathon, all night long ".
On the Prato Nevoso site there are all the steps to take part in the night of skiing, the proceeds of which will be donated to the "Gaslini" Pediatric Institute of Genoa, which has been allied with the Piedmontese ski resort for years to support young cancer patients.

Argentera
Argentera si trova nell’alta Valle Stura, a pochi chilometri dal Colle della Maddalena e dal confine francese, in uno degli ambienti più appartati e selvaggi delle Alpi Marittime. Il comprensorio si sviluppa sopra la frazione di Bersezio, tra circa 1.630 e 2.500 metri di quota, in un paesaggio di lariceti e pendii d’alta montagna dominato dall’Oserot e dalla Rocca dei Tre Vescovi.
