To get to the major ski resorts from The Caselle-Turin Airport the easiest way is to book a private transfer or to hire a car. There is a wide selection of rental car companies at the airport. If you rather go by public transportation you have to be prepared to go via Turin.
Sauze d'Oulx
The Caselle-Turin Airport is around 1 hour by car from Sauze d’Oulx. From the airport there are different ways to go to the village but the easiest, when carrying a lot of luggage, is the private transfer.
