Sport and Nature Courmayeur

Left behind the chaos of the city, nature takes over and paints with unique shades Courmayeur and its main valleys.

Courmayeur, the capital of winter and summer sports, is an unforgettable destination for the lovers of the movement. Everyone will be able to live their own personal approach to sport, in the mountain nature at the foot of the giant of Europe, Mont Blanc.

Paradise of trekking and hiking, in Courmayeur you will find 300 km of thematic itineraries to do during the day that allow you to appreciate the beauty of a nature still unspoilt and protected: we are in fact in the heart of the Espace Mont-Blanc.

The massif of Mont Blanc is also the reign of the extreme: mountain biking, climbing, mountaineering, trail, are some of the possibilities for those who want a sporting stay to overcome their limits and to live a unique adventure.

The Val Ferret, rich in refuges and huts, in summer is the ideal place to hike and enjoy a warm sun. Here you can find the refuges Bonatti and Bertone, two of the most famous in Courmayeur. The sweetness of the landscape also attracts the attention of many golfers attracted by a nine-hole course with a magnificent view on Mont Blanc. In winter, cross-country skiing becomes the protagonist of the valley, with a ring of over 20 km of pistes. All the way, from Planpincieux to Lavachey, there is a pedestrian road to do by foot, by bike or with snow shoes.

The Val Veny, also rich in refuges, goes from Entrèves to Col de la Seigne, at the border with France. During the summer it offers challenging excursions, including the Monzino and Gonella refuge, and easy itineraries, such as the one that leads to the Rifugio Elisabetta and the Miage's Lakes. Not to be missed, a visit to the Sanctuary of Notre-Dame de la Guérison and the Virgin Mary, which since 1800 protects mountaineers who try to climb to Mont Blanc. In winter it becomes the paradise of skiing and freeride which, thanks to its woods, transforms the valley into an amusement park for the most experts.

The water sports, the adventure park or the Sports Center are excellent alternatives for a sports holiday as a source of wellbeing and fun to practice with friends or family.
