Location & what to see

Valgrisenche is one of the wildest and most captivating side valleys of the Aosta Valley, nestled among peaks exceeding 3,000 metres and dominated by the Rutor glacier. Maison Bovard is located in the hamlet of Gerbelle, the heart of this small alpine village, set within a landscape of rare beauty that stretches the gaze toward the French region of Tarentaise.

The location is ideal in both winter and summer. The Valgrisenche ski area is particularly well suited to families and beginners, with downhill slopes, cross-country trails, and a baby snow park. In summer, the valley floor paths and hikes around the Rutor offer routes for all fitness levels, while the rocky faces in the surrounding area attract free climbing enthusiasts. A short walk from the property, visitors can visit the local cooperative where Fontina PDO cheese is produced and watch the crafting of drap, the traditional Valdostan wool cloth still woven on ancient wooden looms.

Courmayeur and Skyway Monte Bianco are 36 and 38 km away respectively, reachable in under an hour by car. Aosta, the regional capital with its rich Roman and medieval heritage, is approximately 30 km away.
