ティーニュの峡谷・トップ5

The Val di Rhêmes is a mountain valley in the northern Italian region of Valle d'Aosta. The valley, which was carved out by the river Dora di Rhêmes, opens up at Arvier in the central Aosta Valley. Here the Dora di Rhêmes flows into the Dora Baltea. There are two small municipalities in the valley: Rhêmes-Notre-Dame (112 inhabitants) and Rhêmes-Saint-Georges (195 inhabitants). The eastern part of the valley belongs to the Gran Paradiso National Park. At the end of the valley lies the striking peak of the Granta Parei with the vast Goletta Glacier.

Beautiful valley with torrents, waterfalls and beautiful glaciers in the background.

Go to Lake Carroley, head towards Lake Friolin. Arrived at the Carroley restaurant, take the small path on the right, marked with a black triangle (mountain bike trail) and follow, Lake Friolin is indicated at the end of this path.

Lovely hike at this time of the year - so many wild flowers. Not ideal after heavy rain as crossing streams and waterfalls can be hazardous and not for the faint hearted. Excellent refuge.

Wide and long valley which is accessed by Les Gorges de Malpasset and the Pont de St Charles.

A magnificent hole between the rocks. It is a fairly narrow path with many small wooden bridges.
