라 툴레 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

A typical Aosta Valley village nestled in the mountains, a crossroads for Colle San Carlo, the Piccolo San Bernardo, and Pré-Saint-Didier. A little trivia: it was here that, at the end of the Second World War, a partisan brigade and a small republican brigade, putting aside all hatred, jointly opposed De Gaulle's attempt to annex the Aosta Valley to France.

We are in the La Thuile Bike Park: https://www.lathuile.it/it/mtb-trail-map This trail is marked BLACK - VERY DIFFICULT The trail is extremely steep, with some fast sections and others featuring very tight, steep switchbacks. Before setting off, read the Bike Park regulations: https://www.lathuile.it/it/natural-trail-area-e-bike-park

This stretch is extremely panoramic: it repays all the effort.

From here you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Rutor glacier.

A beautiful lookout point, a balcony overlooking Mount Blanc. It can be reached from the road that starts next to the restaurant on San Carlo Hill for 1.5 km. The road is unpaved, but with a little care, it's also passable on a racing bike.

La Thuile is one of the largest municipalities in the Aosta Valley; it is located in Valdigne, an area whose name derives from "Vallis Digna" which describes a valley worthy of being colonized for its magnificent exposure at the foot of Mont Blanc but above all worthy of the highest consideration because it was the main connection route with Narbonensis Gaul. At 1450 meters above sea level La Thuile is a mountain village with just over 800 inhabitants (less than seven per square kilometre) which become many more thanks to its strong tourist vocation: in winter it is an international ski resort with slopes reaching the Little Saint Bernard Pass and La Rosiére and in summer it is a place for nature walks, bike excursions and outdoor activities. You can admire the Rutor Glacier (the third largest in the Aosta Valley) with the Rutorine waterfalls with 3 rock falls, discover the mining past linked to the extraction of silver first and then anthracite, find old seventeenth-century entrenchments or admire glimpses of the Mont Blanc massif. In the midst of so much nature, the traditions of a mountain culture rich in values also stand out: food and wine, craftsmanship (The Maison Musée Berton - maisonberton.it - is the ideal place to discover it through a private collection in a private villa now transformed into a house museum) , local products such as Fontina - fontina-dop.it -.

Very simple and relaxing route through the woods to this splendid lake. If you want to visit it in peace, avoid midday hours, especially in summer
