La Thuile - The Wild Side of Mont Blanc

May 28, 2024

The Piccolo San Bernardo Pass is an incredible concentration of history and high mountain nature. A place of passage for pilgrims, traders and armies since ancient times, it today preserves evidence of various eras. A true place of memory.

The Path of Memory is an easy circular itinerary that touches the main points of historical interest present on the Piccolo San Bernardo Pass.

The walk takes place in the embrace of high altitude nature and allows us to discover testimonies left to us by the people who lived there more than 2000 years ago, signs of historical facts and traces left by characters who tell of a place that opened the way between the mountains towards Gaul.

Description:

Leave the car in the car park near the old Italian customs (2198 m), take the path parallel to state road 26 in a south-south-west direction following the panels, metal shapes and statues. After passing the Mansio and crossing the Cromlech, continue towards Ospizio (2164 m) along the beautiful plain of the Piccolo San Bernardo Pass. Once you reach the hospice, continue along a stretch of state road 26 towards Italy for about 100 meters and once you reach the small dirt car park, take the path on the right that leads to the Chapel of Abbot Chanoux. Following the path you reach the back of the Chanusia Alpine Botanical Garden, slightly uphill until you reach the farm road at an altitude of 2243 m. Continue the road for about 80 meters then take the path on the left which leads downhill to the old French customs buildings. From here, along the outward route, you return to the starting point.
