Book your next holiday in Abruzzo now at Club Esse Magnola.
In the heart of Abruzzo, steps from the slopes
At Club Esse Magnola, 35 km of slopes await you, just an hour and a half from Rome. Glide down the foot of Mount Magnola or breathe in the crisp air of the Sirente-Velino Park, speed through the Snowpark at 1,900 meters, or enjoy cross-country skiing toward Rocca di Mezzo. While you relax, kids live big adventures at the Hero Camp. And at night, in the alleys of Ovindoli, follow the scent of arrosticini and Abruzzo flavors.
Services
Restaurant
Our service is always buffet-style and gives you total freedom to match flavors and portions to your personal taste. At lunch and dinner, micro-filtered water and house red and white wine are always included at no extra cost, along with a selection of local wines. The structural layout of our kitchens does not allow us to guarantee the total absence of cross-contamination for any intolerance, nor to adapt menus to individual allergies. In any case, every day in our restaurant you find a basic range of gluten-free, lactose-free, and egg-free foods that our constantly trained kitchen and dining staff will gladly offer you with a smile.
For the little ones: a dedicated menu and a space to have lunch together with the entertainers.
Sport and snow
The 35 km of slopes of the Ovindoli Monte Magnola ski area await you between 1,500 and 2,000 meters of altitude: 21 runs (7 blue, 7 red, and 7 black) with planned snowmaking, served by 11 lifts including chairlifts, ski lifts, magic carpets, and a gondola.
Love freestyle? Put yourself to the test at the Snowpark at 1,900 meters. If you prefer a slower pace, explore the cross-country ski loops on the plateau toward Rocca di Mezzo, or set off in summer on foot and by bike along the trails of the Sirente-Velino Regional Nature Park.
On site you find ski and snowboard schools and gear rental at discounted rates.
Entarteinment
Our entertainment team accompanies you throughout your holiday with board games, tournaments, and music. Every day except Tuesday.

Head down to the dramatic Celano Gorges and admire the imposing Piccolomini Castle from above. Or stroll through Aielli, where colorful murals and history meet under the starry sky.
