In the middle of the Artanavaz Valley, the town of Etroubles includes either the
lands at East of the river, with their conifer-woods, and the western part, with
the numerous tiny villages situated even at 1600 mt of altitude. The chief town
of this area (at 1299 m) is set in a large, green and sunny valley: if you are
on the way from Aosta, you will have an astonishing view, with it appearing
suddenly just after going through a narrow gorge near Echevennoz.
Known already during ancient Roman Empire with the name of Restapolis, Etroubles
was the winter garrison residence before the mountain pass of Mont Jovis, now
called Gran San Bernardo. From here passed Napoleon with his army on the way to
Marengo.
What to visit - First of all the interesting medieval remains of the
roman church-tower of the XV c., the Vachery Tower (XIII c.) situated in the
Vachery village, just north of Etroubles.
Out of curiosity - In the high altitude valleys of Menowe is a vegetal
typical of sub-artical moorlands, the Loiseleurfa Procumbens, a heath very
common in Lapland, Iceland and Greenland.
Skiing and Cross-country skiing - The cross-country skiing route leaves
from Étroubles, a 18 km long route around Gran S.Bernardo and touching the
villages of Saint-Oyen and Saint-Rhémy-en-Bosses, with a difference of level of
200 m (from 1300 to 1500 m). In Etroubles is a night skiing route (1 km long);
furthermore there is a skilift "Paquier" covering a distance of 400 m and a
difference of level of 150 m. For lovers of Alpine Skiing Etroubles offers
interesting tracks, such as Monte Paglietta (2476 m), Col d'Annibal (2992 m),
the suggestive out-track down slope Col Menouve, reachable from the Swiss side
of the mountain by cable-way serving all the ski-area of Super Saint Bernard.
The ski-slope is entirely in Italy, is 10 km long and a difference of level of
1500 m.
