Montgenevre

The high-Alpine terrain around Montgenèvre is organized around the Col de Montgenèvre on the French-Italian border, which has shaped both settlement patterns and the local economy. At 1,860 metres, the village stands near the headwaters of the Durance and has long been a crossing point between France and Piedmont. The pass was used in Roman times on routes linking Italy with Gaul. Today, Montgenèvre is part of the Monts de la Lune ski area, with connections towards Italy’s Via Lattea domain.
