Rhêmes-Saint-Georges
Rhêmes-Notre-Dame
Few minutes from Creton are the characteristic villages of Rhêmes-Saint-Georges and Rhêmes-Notre-Dame, where you will find bars, restaurants and services. Moreover, there are several farms where it is possible to buy fresh and local products.
In Rhêmes-Notre-Dame, a Visitor Center of the Gran Paradiso National Park dedicated to the bearded vulture welcomes tourists for any information relating to the Park and the Valley.
Hikes in Rhêmes Valley
Other sports
As an alternative to hiking and trekking, many other sports activities can be done in the surroundings.
In Rhêmes-Notre-Dame, it is possible to rent mountain bikes and e-mountain bikes and to try out the via ferrata dedicated to the mountain guide Casimiro Therisod.
In Villeneuve, there is an adventure park and rafting center and a sports field with outdoor swimming pool, tennis court and climbing gym.
Playgrounds and wildlife parks
In Rhêmes-Saint-Georges, the recreational and educational area Lo Berlò is designed for kids (but not only for them). Besides the fun of a children's park, an interactive game allows to learn about animals and traditions of Aosta valley.
In Introd, a wildlife park hosts the typical fauna of the Alpine arc and allows everyone to observe chamois, Alpine ibexes, marmots, birds and owls.
A bit of history
Botanical gardens
In Cogne (about 40km from Creton) we suggest the Alpine Botanical Garden Paradisia, where you can admire more than 1000 botanical species and join the events organized for adults and children during the summer to discover the secrets of mountain flora, butterflies and bees.
The Saussurea Alpine Garden, on the other hand, is located on Mont Blanc and is the highest Alpine garden in Europe. It is accessible by Skyway, the cable car that connects Courmayeur to the top of Mont Blanc.
