Chamois

Chamois is a little village in the green pastures at over 1800 meters above the sea level, the highest comune (municipality) in the Valle d'Aosta and the only one in Italy that cannot be reached with a car. Exactly as in a remote time, there is no noise and no pollution, a village that is for sure a destination that you should not miss, be it in winter for skiing or in summer for relaxing trekking, as you can see in the video above.

Chamois offers to his guests during summertime the possibility of trekking in suggestive scenery, and to practice sport fishing at the Lago di Lod (Lod Lake) in a temperate climate repaired from the winds

 

There are twelve kilometers of ski trails and two chairlifts that, from the village square, bring you to 2.500 meters. Downhill ski and cross country ski are both available, or just the pleasure to enjoy the sunshine.
