Valle di Champorcher Cycle Route

The Champorcher Valley Cycle Route takes you through high-altitude landscapes, from the main town of Pontboset with its ancient bridges, to Champorcher, then ascends to Col Laris and overlooks the Piamprato Valley in Piedmont.

It's a route that winds along trails, dirt roads, and forest tracks, alternating with short stretches on roads in the southeastern part of the Aosta Valley, recognized as one of the region's wildest areas.

You cycle through coniferous forests, through narrow valleys carved by glaciers and shaped by the Ayasse River, and then emerge among pastures and wide alpine meadows. You pass villages, mountain pastures, and bridges, in a landscape where nature reigns supreme, and traces of an ancient world coexist with modern mountain life.

You'll find refreshment points and refreshment stands along the route. There are also e-bike charging stations (remember to bring your own cable). The route is particularly suitable for e-bikes or more trained cyclists, and is accessible from late spring to autumn, depending on weather conditions.
