La Thuile has served as a coal-mining centre in the Aosta Valley since the 18th century. Set high in the valley of the Dora di Verney beneath the Rutor Glacier, it lies near the Little St Bernard Pass, an Alpine route into France. Former mine workings remain part of the town’s industrial heritage, while La Thuile is now known for winter sports and the cross-border Espace San Bernardo ski area, linked with La Rosière. In summer, the pass roads and mountain paths draw walkers and cyclists. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across the Aosta Valley.
