rafting and the locality is an excellent starting point for organized walks and
excursions. The project to set up and reconstruct the antique spa baths will
enable this locality to offer even more to the tourist.
Situated in the heart of Valdigne,
Pré-Saint-Didier is a starting point for
numerous walks in the green of the Aosta valley and of Valdigne in particular. A
famous waterfall, ravine, with its wild and evocative beauty, is a popular
destination for those who wander beyond the edges of the Dora Verney which
originates from the Rutor glacier.
The springs of
Pré-Saint-Didier are located upstream of the confluence of the
River Verney with Dora Baltea. The water emerges from the ground inside an
artificial cave, situated at the bottom of Gorge di
Pré-Saint-Didier (Gouffre de
Pré-Saint-Didier), carved by the waters of the Dora di Varney. Even back in
ancient times, the waters of
Pré-Saint-Didier were famous for their soothing
properties. These can be explained by the low mineralization; the waters are
also regenerating thanks to the iron content, and anti-rheumatic thanks to the
moderate radio-activity.
At
Pré-Saint-Didier, there is tourist accommodation available in hotels, farm
holiday, farmhouse, residence self-catering accommodation, mountain chalets,
b&b, rooms for rent, holiday homes, camp sites and tourist villages.
