Strada Grand Ru 1 - 11013 Courmayeur,
Aosta - Italy
Nestled amidst the unparalleled beauty of the Aosta Valley, Courmayeur beckons as a gateway to Italy's highest peak, Mont Blanc. This charming town, sitting at 1,224 meters (4,015 feet) and located just 27 kilometers (16 miles) northwest of Aosta, serves as a picturesque alpine haven.
As the final Italian stop before entering France through the Mont Blanc Tunnel, Courmayeur straddles the Dora Baltea River, originating from the merging streams of Val Ferret and Val Veny. Its authentic alpine ambiance emanates through the cobbled streets of central Via Roma and echoes within the traditional hamlets peppering the valley's landscape.
Courmayeur's allure traces back centuries. Initially renowned for its therapeutic sulphurous springs in the 17th century, it later captivated explorers and mountaineers in the pursuit of scaling Mont Blanc. Throughout the 19th century, its charm drew the regular presence of royalty.
Today, Courmayeur stands as a cherished destination for winter and summer tourism in the Alps, encapsulating history, alpine allure, and the spirit of exploration.
