Champoluc is the main village of the Valle d’Ayas, one of the lateral valleys of the Aosta Valley that open towards the Monte Rosa massif. Situated at around 1,570 metres above sea level, the village has retained an authentic mountain character, with the typical rascard — the traditional wooden and stone structures of the Aosta Valley — dotting the landscape. It is no coincidence that the B&B takes its name from these distinctive architectural features.
Le Vieux Rascard is located on Rue des Guides, in the heart of the village, just a short walk from the local bus stop and only 800 metres from the ski lifts of the Monterosa Ski area, one of the largest in the Alps, linking the Ayas, Gressoney and Valsesia valleys through more than 150 kilometres of slopes. In summer, the area transforms into a paradise for hikers, with trails climbing towards glaciers and high-altitude mountain huts.
Around the B&B you will find restaurants, shops and all the main services of the village. The central location allows guests to reach every point of interest in Champoluc on foot, making a car unnecessary for getting around during the stay. Aosta, the regional capital, is approximately 60 kilometres away.
