Hotel Ad Gallias

A pleasant excursion, starting from La Clevaz, a fraction of the town of Hône and starting to follow the path 2A which runs along the Ayasse stream. The return route proceeds on a well-maintained and well-marked path that crosses a chestnut wood until it reaches Pontboset.

Moderate and easy hike departing from the parking lot of the lower Fort Machaby. The route climbs up to Machaby Church and then continues on the cobbled path. This path leads almost entirely to the Tete de Cou. Just before this first peak, the start of the next path is located behind the small group of buildings.

A walking tour rich in attractions: the marvellous Saint Martin’s Parish in Arnad, perhaps the main attraction along Via Francigena in our itinerary in Val d’Aosta; cross the two ancient bridges of Echallod and Bard, a pretty village dominated by a fort which is also the site of the Alps Museum; and, most of all, the entrance to Donna, along the Roman street of the Gauls, before finishing the itinerary in front of Pont Saint Martin, the Roman bridge.
