오야스 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Beautiful chapel dedicated to the Madonna delle Nevi, destination of a dedicated procession every 5th August. Immersed in a silent valley, it absolutely deserves a contemplative stop.

Below the tower, the Buthier flows through a narrow gorge, which can be crossed on a small bridge.

You can see the village with its striking (octagonal) tower, in the background Mont de Crête Sèche and Mont de Charmontane

Small, unfortunately closed chapel "Madonna della Neve" with benches for resting

Col de Vessonaz, or Col Vessona, is located at 2,794 meters above sea level and can be reached from Closé, from the west, and Valtournenche, from the east. The gaze is lost among the peaks on the horizon: a breathtaking view! The western side is much steeper than the eastern side, but both can be done by running. From here you can also climb to the top of Mount Faroma, but the terrain becomes very technical as you go up.

Oyace is located in the Valpelline valley at an altitude of 1,377 metres, on a slope surrounded by the rocky peaks of the Morion chain and crossed by the Buthier stream. The town has been known since Roman times, when it was called Agacium. Here you can find excellent Fontina. Right next to the village, on the hill, is the Tornalla Tower, which is an interesting place to visit.

The stone bridge allows you to cross the Buthier Creek. It is very impressive to see how the force of water over the centuries has carved a deep gorge.

Col de Vessonaz is located at 2,794 meters above sea level and can be reached from Closé. The view stretches across the peaks on the horizon: a breathtaking view!
