On 25 January 2005, the cantonal authorities announced that Campo Blenio would merge with Aquila, Ghirone, Olivone and Torre to form a new municipality to be called Blenio. This union was carried through on 22 October 2006. [1]

There are ski slopes operated by Cooperative Society Campo Blenio-Ghirone Tourist Facilities that offers a range of services, managed by Martinelli Gianni.[2][3] The slopes are particularly suitable for learning to ski and snowboard. The resort also has a 4.5-kilometer lighted slope. For non-skiers, there are enchanting snowshoeing and hiking trails to take in the woods around Campo Blenio-Ghirone. [3]
