モンジョヴェのおすすめランニングルート

Saint-Germain Castle (or Montjovet Castle), of uncertain origins, marked the history of the Aosta Valley, passing from the Savoy to the Challant family, before finally returning to the Savoy in 1438. Used as a military garrison by Amadeus VIII, it was abandoned in 1661 when the garrison was transferred to the Bard Fort. Completing the site is the Church of Saint-Germain: a small Romanesque building that, through frescoes and architectural details, preserves the spiritual memory of the local community.

The Arlaz Waterfall can be reached either from the Col d'Arlaz or from the Orbeillaz car park, following path number 31 which runs alongside the Rû d’Arlaz, a 14th-century artificial canal that channels the water of the Evançon stream and carries it to the municipalities of Challand, Emarese and Montjovet.

Railway over the Dora. Worse were the consequences of the previous floods. The cycle path was no longer recognisable and transformed into a single sandy plain.

Be careful, after flooding some parts are still destroyed

Beautiful cycle path, excellent example of how public money can be spent well. The stretch closest to the Dora, immediately after Septumian, is currently covered in sand after the last flood of the river at the beginning of the summer

This railway bridge that runs over the Dora River allows you to cycle under the passing trains and always alongside the river.

The Col d'Araz is located between Montjovet and Challand-Saint-Victor and offers a beautiful view of the central valley and the mountains. The climb on both sides has some sections with challenging slopes, but the beautiful views repay every effort.

The Castello di Verrès is an impressive medieval castle in the Aosta Valley, built in the 14th century by Yblet de Challant. The castle is known for its unique monolithic structure, which resembles a solid cube and differs from most other castles of the time which consisted of multiple buildings within a walled enclosure. Dominating the town of Verrès and the entrance to the Val d'Ayas, the castle has a military character that merges with elegant stone details that adorn the windows, doors and monumental mantelpieces. The castle has no corner towers nor a keep.
