An environmentally sustainable areaverde
The Forest of Pian Villy: An Enchanting Walk in Champoluc In the heart of the Aosta Valley Alps, the forest of Pian Villy offers a wide and flat route, ideal for a relaxing walk in nature, accessible to all, including those using wheelchairs and strollers.
Located a short distance from the village of Champoluc, near the parking lot of the MonteRosa Terme wellness center, this route immerses itself in a wooded environment dominated by spruce trees, offering an experience of total immersion in the tranquility and beauty of nature.
A Trail for All Accessibility and Natural Beauty The ease of the trail makes the Pian Villy forest a perfect destination for families, including guests with reduced mobility, although a companion is recommended for physically disabled people in wheelchairs.
The trail, enriched with undergrowth of juniper, heather, barberis and blueberry, leads visitors through a picnic area and an illuminated footpath, which can also be used during the winter months thanks to the groomed snow.
Art and Nature: A Unique Combination One of the most fascinating features of the Pian Villy forest is the presence along the path of numerous wooden statues, carved by renowned Aosta Valley artists.
These works of art, renewed annually during the “Ayas Artisanat” event, dedicated to local crafts, enrich the path with touches of creativity and culture, creating a unique dialogue between art and the natural environment.
How to Reach the Pian Villy Woods Starting from the Ayas Mountain Guides Office, the footpath winds along the Evançon stream, leading visitors to the Monte Rosa Terme parking lot.
Leaving the spa building on the left and passing under an impressive wooden archway, you enter the heart of the forest, continuing to the Le Frachey locality.
