Imagine a vast expanse of snow-covered slopes, many of which are internationally renowned. All facilities are equipped to host training and competitions for both professional and amateur skiers. This unique place in the world is one of the most prestigious tourist attractions in continental Europe.
For mountain lovers, there is the opportunity to alternate between breathtaking climbs, trekking routes, and downhill runs from the peaks of the Alpine arc. Excursions through the earthly paradises of the Aosta Valley and trips to discover exclusive food and wine itineraries are part of the recommended menu for “gourmets.” By dedicating a few vacation days to the fascinating peaks bordering Switzerland, you can stop at Ventina, where spectacular ski facilities make snow lovers “fly.”
Glaciers with a pulsating heart dominate the promontories of the two neighboring states: think of the legendary Plateau Rosa! And what about the breathtaking natural beauties, enhanced by the special morphology of the fabulous “Matterhorn Ski Paradise”?
What to Do and See in the Matterhorn Valley on a Thrilling Tour
A storm of emotions awaits visitors to Valtournenche, who are called to buckle up before starting a first-class tour. The lively and welcoming center of Breuil-Cervinia deserves a mandatory visit, whether alone or in good company. It’s hard to resist the call of adventure, especially if the itinerary includes a climb for connoisseurs.
And then there’s Mount Breithorn, a gentle giant dominating a stunning landscape from 4,000 meters high. It’s worth trying a great “over the top” experience to add to any climber’s (even occasional) resume.
Since the thrill of discovery and relaxation pairs well with the hunt for excitement, what better choice than sports to intensely experience the Alpine atmosphere?
What to Do and See in the Matterhorn Valley: Enjoy the Spectacle!
You can choose between classic group snowshoeing and fast spins on an ice-kart on Cervinia’s icy tracks. There’s always a good excuse to engage in exciting and relaxing activities like sport fishing at Lake Gorzà in Torgnon. The popular golf course, nestled in greenery at 2000 meters above sea level, attracts lovers of golf.
It’s a model facility, surrounded by an enviable natural setting, capable of enchanting at first sight. A typical dinner, then, is a must, and as you climb higher, it takes on a whole new flavor: not a bad diversion, right? The Perucca refuge, for example, has what it takes to offer refreshment to tourists visiting the most beautiful corners of the Alpine chain.
If, instead, the goal is a “full immersion” among the Aosta Valley mountains, then a stay in Chamois is in order. There is indeed a human-scale village where life without cars is possible, in a fairy-tale atmosphere, safely away from chaos and pollution.
