Location & what to see

Residence Pavou is located in the hamlet of Epinel, a small village on the outskirts of Cogne, a municipality in the Aosta Valley nestled in the heart of Gran Paradiso National Park. Cogne is considered one of the region’s gems: in winter it is an internationally renowned cross-country skiing destination, with dozens of kilometres of groomed trails winding through the valley floor; in summer it transforms into a paradise for hikers and nature lovers, with paths leading to the glaciers and mountain pastures of the Gran Paradiso massif.

The hamlet of Epinel is just a few minutes’ walk from the centre of Cogne, where you will find shops, traditional Aosta Valley restaurants, the local market and all essential services. The Grand Eyvia stream flows nearby, providing a natural soundscape that accompanies the entire stay. The location is peaceful yet well connected, with the regional road allowing you to reach Aosta in approximately 30 minutes.

For guests travelling by car, the free private parking is a significant advantage given the mountainous terrain. Turin Airport is approximately 146 km away, while major Aosta Valley attractions such as the Cabinovia Pila are around 22 km away.
