Staying overnight in Chatillon will allow you to change even one destination per day. In this way you can keep an eye on the weather and make the most of the ski pass that allows you to ski on all the slopes in the region.
Some of the destinations you can easily reach
If winter thrills with snow and the adrenaline rush of skiing, summer is the favourite time for those who love the mountains as a cool refuge from the oppressive heat of the cities.
Thanks to the stunning alpine nature, you can organise various sports activities here to enjoy your active holiday in and around Chatillon.
Bicycle path – e-bike
This runs along the Dora Baltea for about 50 km, from Pont-Saint-Martin to beyond Aosta. It may be the right idea for a few hours of cycling, perhaps on a e-bike, the electric bicycle, if you fear you are not prepared for the roughness of the terrain or the winds that sometimes lash it.
Horse riding
Ideal for those seeking an even stronger contact with nature. Discovering enchanted places at a leisurely trot is a thrill to be experienced. For these rides, you can contact the riding stables located near the hotel.
Trekking
If you love trekking, don’t miss the opportunity to walk the Via Francigena or the new Cammino Balteo (which enhances the Dora Baltea area). And let’s not forget the peaks that make our territory famous: His Majesty the Cervino, Monte Bianco, Monte Rosa and Gran Paradiso; mountain huts, lakes and much more! There is no shortage of ideas in Aosta Valley to organise half a day or a full day of trekking!
Nordic walking
Discover the Nordic Walking Park di Torgnon, with marked trails of varying difficulty, amidst breathtaking natural environments. Nordic walking’ involves different muscle groups in the chest than normal walking requires more energy.
Rafting in the ‘Colorado of Europe’
