Clé du Paradis is located in the Les Cretes hamlet of Bionaz, a small municipality in the Aosta Valley situated in the upper Val Bionaz, one of the wildest and least-visited lateral valleys in the entire region. Surrounded by Alpine pastures, conifer forests and peaks exceeding 3,000 metres, the area offers a landscape of extraordinary beauty in every season.
Within a few kilometres lie some of the valley’s most striking sights: Lago di Place Moulin, an artificial lake at the foot of the Grand Combin glacier, is reachable in about 13 minutes by car. Becca di Nona, a summit rising to 2,898 m, is just 3.5 km as the crow flies and is one of the favourite destinations for summer hikers. In winter the area draws skiers, with opportunities for alpine skiing and snowshoeing along snow-covered trails.
For dining, the Des Amis restaurant is about 900 m from the property, while the Camping Bar Ristorante Lac Lexert can be reached on foot in about 14 minutes. Aosta Airport is approximately 27 km away, a 28-minute drive.
Guests express near-unanimous enthusiasm: staff scores a perfect 10, while cleanliness and comfort are close to the maximum. Value for money is judged excellent and the location, though secluded, is appreciated by those seeking authentic mountain surroundings.
