Valtournenche Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)

The Mighty Matterhorn Luxury Ski Holidays in the Matterhorn Valley of Cervinia, Italy offer some of the most superb skiing in the Alps. Cervinia is a high altitude resort at 2000 meters, dominated by the mighty Matterhorn, with reliable snow conditions throughout the Winter from December right through to April. The long, open runs and easy gradients of Plateau Rosa are ideal for advanced beginners and intermediates from which you can enjoy some fantastic views. More advanced skiers can head to Valtournenche and Zermatt, Switzerland for an incredible ski area at their disposal. Valtournenche is an old village approximately 9 km from Cervinia whilst Zermatt is on the Swiss side, both link into the ski area of Cervinia.  Cervinias biggest asset is its altitude and skiing continues well into the summer months on the attractive Plateau Rosa, set against a magnificent glacial backdrop. In addition there are plentiful winter activities to be undertaken such as ice-skating, snowshoes walking, snow bike, paragliding and climbing on the beautiful Via Ferrara del Gorbeillon. #lover'smilestone#lanternshow#hiking#naturalwonders#roadtrip#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

#beyondborders Do you know Toblerone chocolate? I guest most ppl ate it before or heard of it. The mountain on the package is Matterhorn! I finally get to see it in real! I just live this place so much! The only sad thing is I didn’t get to ski because you can only ski in the morning during the summer time! If you are interested in skiing in there during summer, remember to go in the morning! #beyondborders

The main street of the town is 1500 meters long.

There are three classic routes from Zermatt, the Gornergrat, the Rothorn and the Matterhorn glacier paradise. Article 1: Zermatt-Gornergrat Since the opening of the Gora Glat Mountain Railway in 1898, as long as you take the mountain train and sit for 45 minutes, you can enjoy 29 seats including the Matterhorn. In the Alps, you can see the beautiful scenery that only climbers can see in the past. this Second: Zermatt-Rothorn This line feels like the most beautiful route, because the Matterhorn seen at the Rothorn Lookout at 3103 meters above sea level is the sharpest and most angled. Good, and a little later you can see the Fendern Glacier lying quietly in the mountains, also a gazebo third that can simultaneously admire the Matterhorn and the glacier: Zermatt-Matterhorn glacier paradise/ Compared with the first two lines, hh/ is the farthest from the town, but it is the closest one to Matterhorn. Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, also known as the Little Matterhorn, can be reached by cable car. The observation deck is 3,883 meters above sea level. It is the observatory where the highest point in Europe is located.

Plateau Rosa + 3480mt ON TOP OF THE ALPS

On top of the mountain Plateau Rosa - Cervinia is one of the highest view points of the Alps. The location could be reached by gondola from Cervinia down town, you can reach the top of the mountain both ways with ski or without. From the cable car arrival terrace (in about 30 mins) you can admire the big four thousands up close, from the Matterhorn to Mont Blanc, from Gran Paradiso to Monte Rosa to all the Swiss peaks of the Valais, before “turning back” with an eagle’s eye view (and you can actually see eagles from here!) in Italy to look at the unmistakable shape of Monviso, in Piedmont Once in Plateau Rosà, just a stone’s throw from the arrival station of the cable car (with the Shelter of the Guides where you can stop), it is also possible to reach the Grotta di Ghiaccio on foot (cable-car arrival point Small Matterhorn 3882 m). A “compass rose” on the terrace indicates the most important mountains of the Aosta Valley and the canton of Valais (Switzerland). With 3,899 m, it has the highest slope/ski slope or the highest ski lift/lift on the Matterhorn (Monte Cervino). Cervinia Plateau Rose is simply one of the best spot of Alps. When you are at 3500m of altitude and are lucky to get a sunny day, you can really touch heaven with your fingers! Take a breath and enjoy such natural wonders!!! All info about the cable car timetable and price are on the website Cervino Ski Paradise. #alpstrip #snow #amazing #Paradise #cherryblossom2024 #localguides #italy #Swiss #mountainview #heaven

mountains view

From the cable car arrival terrace you can admire the big four thousands up close, from the Matterhorn to Mont Blanc, from Gran Paradiso to Monte Rosa to all the Swiss peaks of the Valais, before “turning back” with an eagle’s eye view (and you can actually see eagles from here!) in Italy to look at the unmistakable shape of Monviso, in Piedmont Once in Plateau Rosà, just a stone’s throw from the arrival station of the cable car (with the Shelter of the Guides where you can stop), it is also possible to reach the Grotta di Ghiaccio on foot (cable-car arrival point Small Matterhorn 3882 m). This is one of the wonders of the Alps, where you can admire fantastic sculptures. For safety reasons it is best to be accompanied by a mountain guide. The cave is open every day and is reached through a 50 m tunnel at a depth of 15 m. There is an entry fee and the visiting times vary depending on the opening of the “Trocknersteg-Piccolo Cervino” stage cable car. The same route is also home to the tour to the 4000 m mountain for absolute beginners, a sort of baptism of high altitudes. #italy #snow #amazing #amazingview #wonderful #newyearadventure #tripblazers #mytripvlog #campingglamping

unique place up in the mountain

The Foyer des Guides restaurant is a restaurant located on the ski slopes, but easily accessible by car. Typical mountain chalet, it combines tradition with modern and functional design elements. The idea of cooking combines in simplicity the flavors of the area and a touch of innovation, using wherever possible natural products at km 0 and organic. A stone cellar with an ancient flavor collects a rich collection of wines (250 regional and national wines). In my opinion, the best restaurant in the valley, for the overall experience. Excellent food and wine, excellent location and very good service. The price is just the right one. You pay for what you get. If you need some help for trekking, ski, alpinism or just for a ramble, just ask to Sabrina and Walter. Very good features for your children as well, both indoor and outdoor (in summer time). Staff very nice, they brough always some chips, peanuts together with beer. Interior is awesome, don't miss to visit wine cellar. Opened for dinner during the weekends and holiday, the lodge displays its dining area with the stories of the Matterhorn Mountain Guide’s great tasks. Here beauty and taste live under the same roof: the dishes incorporate organic and genuine Aosta Valley flavors, and furthermore, their well-diversified wine and cheese cellar offer extraordinary delicacies. In addition, the lodge frequently hosts themed dinner parties, specific menus in celebration with various festivities, and live music.
