From Promiod to Saint-Vincent

It starts in Promiod di Châtillon, cycling for the most part through the woods of the Col di Joux pass, where you will have the opportunity to admire breathtaking views over the Val d'Ayas, as far as the vast open landscapes of Emarèse. The predominantly agricultural area is like a balcony overlooking the peaks, from Rosa dei Banchi to Mont Emilius and Mont Blanc. From here, head downhill towards the tourist resort of Saint-Vincent. Around the village you will see the splendid natural scenery of the Plaine Valle d'Aosta and Valtournenche. Don't forget to visit the church of San Vincenz in the centre. In the town you will find excellent restaurants, lively shopping streets and a casino.
