1. Skiing in Saint Vincent
The Saint-Vincent slope is part of a small 8-kilometer area with several slopes, where the daily ski pass costs from 38€ per person.
We recommend, just a 20-minute drive away, a visit to the Winter Park in Torgnon, a great place for the little ones, with an entrance fee of 8€ per person.
Finally, to end the day, you can stop at the hut Des Troncs, which organizes, every first Saturday of the month, a DJ set on the slopes.
2. Discover Saint Vincent
We suggest a walk through the center of Saint-Vincent, with a visit to the parish church and a stop at the Vancheri pastry shop, where you can taste Torcetti, typical cookies made with butter and sugar.
In addition, to catch a glimpse of typical products, we recommend a visit to the distilleria Cortese, where you will have the opportunity to learn about the production process of Aosta Valley grappas and liqueurs.
Finally, just outside the center, you can visit the Casinò of Saint Vincent.
3. Dinner in a mountain hut near Saint Vincent
Just a 20-minute drive from Saint-Vincent, we recommend the experience of a chalet dinner with snowmobile transport in Torgnon.
You can choose from 2 different menù from 50€ per person: the Valdostan menù or the menù pierrade and raclette, which will allow you to personally cook meats and vegetables on the stone.
4. Day at the spa
In Saint Vincent, we recommend the Hotel Alla Posta, which offers wellness packages also dedicated to those who do not stay in the hotel, but want to relax at the spa.
A little further north of Saint Vincent, in Champoluc, we suggest the Monterosa Wellness Center, where you can choose between private admissions or the standard 4-hour option. The cost of admission starts from 37€ per person.
5. Walk with alpacas
At Montjovet, 6 km from Saint-Vincent, we recommend an ideal activity for the whole family. You will have the opportunity to get to know these friendly animals during a walk among mountain trails and medieval remains.
The experience has a cost of 45€ per person, while for children from 5 to 15 years old the price è of 13€ each.
We suggest that you wear sportswear suitable for the weather, with trekking boots or sneakers.
6. Snowshoeing in Champoluc
During the winter period, we recommend that you participate in a snowshoeing suitable for everyone, accompanied by a mountain guide.
The route will run in the surroundings of Ayas-Champoluc with a duration of about 3 hours and an elevation gain of 300m .
The experience has a cost of 140€ per group for a maximum of 10 participants. Equipment rental è excluded from the price.
