Ussita Weather

Ussita weather has to be read at two altitudes. Ussita is a scattered municipality in the province of Macerata, with its town hall at Fluminata. It lies at about 744 m, at the foot of the Monte Bove massif, in the Sibillini National Park in the Sibillini Mountains. Higher up is Frontignano, the ski hamlet overlooked by Monte Bove and Monte Bicco, where the ski area ranges from about 1,350 to 2,000 m. The village and the snow therefore call for separate assessments.

The area still bears the marks of the 2016-2017 earthquake. The shocks of October 26 and 27, 2016, with their epicenter between Castelsantangelo sul Nera and Ussita, left 90% of buildings unusable. The Frontignano ski resort also stayed closed for several years and reopened its first lifts in February 2022.

Today in Ussita: cloudy, high 14 °C and low 11 °C, wind up to 24 km/h.

Ussita weather: the forecast for the coming days

Forecasts for the coming days apply to the main village of Ussita, at around 744 m. Anyone going up to Frontignano or toward Monte Bove should bear in mind that the ski area ranges from about 1,350 to 2,000 m. Temperature, wind and snow line can therefore be very different from those in the village.

To compare conditions with the neighboring valley, the page on Castelsantangelo sul Nera weather is useful. The picture for the whole area is on the page Sibillini Mountains Weather.

Ussita weather: the climate month by month

Ussita is in climate zone E, with 2,510 degree days: the second-coldest of the six bands into which Italy is divided. In this zone heating may stay on from October 15 to April 15, which gives an idea of how long the cold season lasts.

In winter the Frontignano ski season normally runs from late December to mid-March, but everything depends on the snow. In the 2025-2026 season the slopes opened early after heavy snowfall. In other years, by contrast, snow was scarce and ski days very few. In summer the area is popular for Nordic walking.

Ussita weather: snow and conditions

For snow in Ussita, Frontignano is what matters most. In the 2025-2026 season skiing took place on the slopes served by the Saliere and Belvedere chairlifts, practice area included.

The awaited novelty is the Frontignano–Cornaccione gondola. It will link Frontignano at 1,350 m to Monte Cornaccione at 1,909 m over about 2 km and will replace the old Selvapiana, Cornaccione and Ginepro chairlifts. In spring 2026 work was still under way, and an ordinance banned vehicles and bicycles from the construction area until August 31, 2026. With ordinance no. 48 of August 25, 2026, the Municipality of Ussita then prohibited the movement of vehicles and pedestrians until December 31, 2026. The opening is planned for the 2026-2027 season and should be confirmed before setting out.

Off-piste, avalanches are a real factor. In the 1990s an avalanche stopped just above the houses of Vallestretta, a hamlet at the head of the valley between Monte Rotondo and Monte Careschio. The Val di Bove is suited to ski touring, but the Sibillini avalanche bulletin must be checked before any outing.

The Calcara ice rink, certified for hockey, has been closed since the 2016-2017 earthquakes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the altitude of Ussita?

The main village of Ussita sits at about 744 m, at the foot of Monte Bove, in the Sibillini National Park. Frontignano, the hamlet where people ski, is much higher: the new gondola starts at 1,350 m and reaches Monte Cornaccione at 1,909 m. That is why the weather in the village and on the slopes can be very different.

Can you ski at Frontignano di Ussita this winter?

In the 2025-2026 season skiing at Frontignano took place on the slopes of the Saliere and Belvedere chairlifts, practice area included. For winter 2026-2027 the opening of the new Frontignano–Cornaccione gondola is planned; it was still under construction in spring 2026. The season normally runs from late December to mid-March, but it all depends on the snow: check before you go.

How cold is Ussita in winter?

Ussita is in climate zone E, with 2,510 degree days: the second-coldest of the six bands in Italy. In this zone heating is allowed from October 15 to April 15, a sign of a long cold season. At Frontignano, above 1,350 m, conditions are harsher: check the updated forecast before going up.
