La Magdeleine

The upper Valtournenche valley defines the setting of La Magdeleine — its small hamlets are spread across sunny Alpine slopes above the valley floor, amid pastureland and woodland. At around 1,600 metres, this Aosta Valley comune has a distinctly rural character, with stone-and-timber buildings reflecting long-established mountain ways of living. La Magdeleine belongs to Italy’s officially bilingual Aosta Valley, where Italian and French both shape public life and place names. Roads and footpaths link the settlement with neighbouring communities in the Valtournenche, a valley leading towards some of the region’s highest Alpine terrain.
