 Courmayeur
is very popular, especially at weekends, with the smart Italian set from
Milan and Turin. It's easy to see why: it's very easy to get to and
certainly the most captivating of the Val d'Aosta resorts.
The scenery, the charm and the nightlife are big draws. Certainly, the
slopes themselves are unlikely to be the main draw, given their limited
range of difficulty, inconvenient location across the valley from the
village and, particularly, their limited size. A keen slope-basher will
cover Courmayeur in a day.
Mont Blanc is life itself, it symbolises the
deep-rooted and ancient reasons that make this town and its people special,
it gives it a stamp of authenticity which not even time can erase. The
richness of the environment and nature, the possibility to go hiking and "touch"
local fauna make this area an important tourist attraction for mountain
lovers following marked out paths and guided along the way by nature guides.
