Gressoney-La-Trinite

The upper Lys Valley defines the setting of Gressoney-La-Trinité — beneath the Monte Rosa massif, steep alpine terrain has shaped a compact settlement and a life long tied to mountain travel. It is one of the Walser communities of the Aosta Valley, founded by German-speaking settlers in the Middle Ages; their heritage endures in local traditions and in stone-and-timber houses. The village stands on routes leading towards Stafal and the Monterosa Ski area, while summer walkers head for high pastures and mountain paths. Near the head of the valley, Gressoney-La-Trinité has a distinctly high-alpine character rather than the urban atmosphere of Aosta.
