Top Rated Attractions in Courmayeur

Search Radius (Miles)
Skyway Monte Bianco

This majestic cableway transports tourists from Courmayeur up to Punta Helbronner, in the heart of the massive Mont Blanc, at an altitude of 3462 meters (11,400 feet). Two descents are possible from here: the Toula, an extraordinary experience among seracs and granite, which takes skiers down tot he Paillon station, and, if the snow is ideal, down to the Piazzale del Tunnel del Monte Bianco. This route descends 2000 meters (6560 feet) of altitude. Considering the wideness and vastness of this area, it is important to know that it is possible to plan a different itinerary for every descent. On the other side is the Vallée Blanche descent, which leaves at an altitude of 3462 meters (11358.27 feet) at Punta Helbronner and arrives in Chamonix, at a height of 1030 meters (3400 feet). This route is 24 kilometers (15 miles) long, and passes glaciers and granite pinnacles and leads from Mont Blanc to the European capital of Alpine skiing, crossing the Mer de Glace. It is fundamental to remember that it is best to make sure you are accompanied by an Alpine guide on all these descents, and that the high mountain routes are not signposted or controlled, and should therefore only be attempted with the necessary preparation, equipment, and an Alpine guide or ski instructor.

Notre Dame de Guérison Sanctuary

Notre Dame de Guérison sanctuary is a major attraction in Courmayeur, Italy. It is very popular among tourists because of the landscape, the convenience of travel and its proximity to a well known tourist resort. The interior walls display frescoes painted by artist Giuseppe Stornone. These frescoes show traces of arresting Baroque style. This sanctuary is open for visitors.

Lago d'Arpy

This lake is 2066 meters (6778 feet) above sea level. It is about two hectares (about five acres) in size. It was formed by the erosion of sedimentary rock dating back to the Carboniferous period. The lake is between Monte Charvel and Becca Poignenta on the left. There is also Monte Colmet. Water flows down this mountain and runs in cascades into the lake. It is the outlet of the Pietra Rossa Lake. On the righthand side, there is the Colle della Croce. The water of Arpy Lake has mixtures of colors which vary between brown, green and pale-blue. The lake has lots of fish and you can see many animals nearby like chamois, roebucks, golden eagles, roosters, hares and marmots.

Preylet Picnic Area

On the road to the San Carlo Hill, if you go on to La Thuile, you come across the Preylet picnic area. It lies beyond the village and is easily reached because it can be clearly seen from the road leading to the threshold of Piccolo San Bernardo. It takes you to the Bourg St. Maurice area and is an alternative route (in the summer season, when it is not closed on account of the snow) to the Mont Blanc tunnel. The picnic area covers two-and-a-half hectares (over six acres), and has 40 sites (two benches and a wooden table per "site"), as well as two for disabled visitors. So that visitors can prepare the perfect picnic, there are 22 stoves (to cook meat or grilled vegetables, "sulla losa"), 14 rubbish deposits, three fountains and two toilets (one for disabled visitors). It can accommodate around 250 people.

Cascate del Rutor

One of the most magnificent waterfalls in the region, Cascate del Rutor attracts a large number of tourists from across the country. The sheer beauty of the waterfall combined with its wonderful natural surroundings make it a must-visit while in La Thuile. The gushing waters of Cascate del Rutor eventually flows to the Dora River.

Maison Musée Berton

Situated on the banks of Dora di Verney stream, Maison Musée Berton is housed in a historic building which used to be the former residence of Robert and Louis Berton. The various rooms at this museum are home to exhibits portraying the craftsmanship and lifestyle prevalent in La Thuile over the centuries. From handicrafts and farm equipment to books and utensils, the items on display here are fascinating to say the least.
