The Thermal Waters
This renowned, historical building dates back to 1834, when the name of the town was "Pré.Saint-Didier-les-Bains". Although the warm waters, rich in iron, were known as far back as the Roman times, it was in the mid 17th century that they started becoming a tourist attraction, thanks to their mineral salts that were considered beneficial and thought to ease rheumatism.
The Pré-Saint-Didier thermal waters offer visitors many choices: massages, Jacuzzi, and saunas (at 80° and 90°). Besides this, the view of the Mont Blanc mountain chain from some areas of the Spa is breathtaking.
Members of the Italian Royal family came to this Spa over the past 150 years.
The entire structure lay in disuse for about 30 years, but recently renovation work has been carried out on it, making it now one of the most popular tourist attractions in the Mont Blanc area, and several agreements have been made with hotels in the area, should guests choose to stay in them; the Villaggio delle Alpi is in fact one of them.
Excursions we suggest
Guests can admire a truly suggestive and completely natural panorama just off the town centre of Pré-Saint-Didier: the Chasm, a deep and very narrow abyss, formed by the rushing water of the Dora di Verney river. The two thermal springs that flow out of the rock at a temperature of 22° and 36° are next to the waterfall.
Being near some of the most beautiful valleys of Valdigne makes Pré Saint Disier the perfect starting place for numerous excursions; the more courageous walkers will enjoy taking part in the educational walks at various levels of difficulty organized by the Mont Blanc Adventure Park.
You can also choose from numerous sports activities: guided alpine excursions, rock excursions, trekking, paragliding, rafting, mountain bike, cycling out of the Mont Blanc Adventure Park. The Adventure Park offers 7 different levels of difficulty: the blue route, that is also the easiest (at the most 2 metres above sea level), and 3 intermediate routes (at the most 8 metres above sea level); the red route (closed if it snows), that is also the longest and most tiring (at the most 18 metres above sea level); but the longest and certainly most difficult one, that really gets your adrenalin going, is the one that goes across the canyon of the Abyss of Pré-Saint Didier above the thermal springs (at a height of 188 metres, 130 metres long). All the walks take about 4 hours.
Sport
QIt goes without saying that in winter, but not just then, there are many kilometers of slopes for skiing and snowboard lovers at the nearby skiing stations of Courmayeur and La Thuile.
There are more than 300 km of slopes at Courmayeur and La Thuile Pré Saint Didier, but it must be said that there are also many other choices: rafting, canoe, mountain bike, fishing, trekking and running.
