Rhemes-Notre-Dame

The Dora di Rhêmes defines the setting of Rhêmes-Notre-Dame — its steep Alpine valley gathers small stone-and-timber hamlets below the Gran Paradiso massif. This high Aosta Valley commune lies within Gran Paradiso National Park, founded in 1922 from a former royal hunting reserve and central to the protection of Alpine ibex. Summer brings walkers into side valleys and high pastures, while winter settles deeply around the roofs and surrounding slopes. Italian and Franco-Provençal traditions meet in local place names and mountain life, reflecting the valley’s borderland character.
