Vedun - Jovençan

The traverse from Vedun to Jovençan crosses the mid-elevation belt of the Valdigne in the municipality of La Salle, between 1519 and 1868 metres. The 6 km route with 342 metres of ascent develops over open terrain, with the slope facing the Aosta plain and the Mont Blanc massif rising to the north. The environment is that of the Valdigne's historic summer pastures: mid-altitude grasslands, grassy clearings, patches of conifer forest providing shade in the warmer hours. Jovençan at 1868 metres is a departure point for further routes toward the Col de Vertosan and higher terrain. Recommended June to September.
