Valle d'Aosta Roisan Gran San BernardoRoisan

At 850 mt., Roisan is situated on the left side of the Buthier river. The parish church of Saint Vittore is interesting from an historical-artistic point of view. Inside there are some statues representing Saint Vittore and two Madonnas with the Child (13th and 14th century).

A mountain-bike route leads you along the old irrigation canals of the territory and to the center of the village. There is also a nice equipped green area for children and adults.

The excursion to the Col and to the Becca di Viou is wonderful.

From there you can enjoy one of the most beautiful panoramic views of the whole Aosta Valley and admire the whole chain of the Alps, from the Graian to the Pennine Alps. The excursion to the Rovon Alp (1743 mt.) is particularly interesting from an historical point of view, in fact along this itinerary you pass the old oratory of Meana.
