Tips from the Community

Luigi D'Imperio
April 8, 2026, Pila – balcone sulle Alpi

Pila is a mountain resort located at about 1,800 meters above Aosta, known for both winter sports and summer activities. Its position makes it a privileged panoramic viewpoint: on clear days, the view opens up over a large part of the Aosta Valley Alpine arc, from Mont Blanc to the Matterhorn to Monte Rosa.

Valley floor access point a few minutes from Aosta, located near the confluence of the Dora Baltea and the Buthier stream. Several ascents to the surrounding slopes start from here.

L'Alpe Grandes Arpilles is an alpine pasture located at an altitude of approximately 2090-2137 meters, in the Vétan basin. It is a cluster of huts, now largely reduced to ruins, situated in an open position overlooking the vast pastures that extend at the foot of Punta Leysser and Mont Fallère. It can be reached from Chatelanaz by following the winding dirt road, or more directly by ascending the slope from Thoules after crossing a stream. The pasture marks the intersection point with the cross-country road that continues along the mountainside towards the Mont Fallère Refuge, thus serving as a natural crossroads for hikers, snowshoers, and ski tourers. The tree vegetation thins out here until it disappears, giving way to grassy expanses that in winter transform into vast snowy slopes. The panorama is wide and open: to the south, one can admire the Grivola and the peaks of Gran Paradiso, while on clearer days, Mont Blanc can also be glimpsed.

At this point, there's a covered rest area ideal for those pedaling these trails, complete with an e-bike charging station and a tire pump. From the rest area, you can enjoy a spectacular view of the valley floor, perfect for a relaxing break during your hike or bike ride.

The mountain pasture is accessible via a pastoral road, accessible by mountain bike. From here, there are excellent views of the Aosta plain and numerous valleys on the right bank (Valgrisenche, Val di Rhêmes, Valsavarenche, Val di Cogne).
