Vallée en Saveurs, between Pré-Saint-Didier and La Thuile

The municipality of Pré-Saint-Didier is launching ‘Vallée en Saveurs’, a free guided outing linking two villages in the upper valley. The programme: a visit to La Thuile, a stop at a fontina warehouse, a tasting and, to finish, an evening at the thermal baths.

Three weekends, one route

The outing runs on Saturday and Sunday 14 and 15 November, 28 and 29 November, then 12 and 13 December 2026. It starts in front of the town hall in Pré-Saint-Didier, on Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II. Participants board an electric shuttle that takes them to La Thuile.

La Thuile and the fontina of Les Fontines

In La Thuile, a guided tour shows visitors round the village. The group then moves on to Les Fontines, where it visits a fontina PDO warehouse.

The visit ends with a tasting: fontina PDO, other local specialities and Blanc de Morgex et de La Salle, the wine from the highest vineyards in the valley.

An evening at the Pré-Saint-Didier thermal baths

Back in Pré-Saint-Didier, participants can go into the thermal baths in the evening, as long as places remain for the day. The organisers advise bringing a swimsuit, warm clothes and comfortable shoes.

The initiative is funded by the Italian Ministry of Tourism (FUNT 2026 fund), with the involvement of the regional tourism department.
