Palazzo delle Feste, Bardonecchia

Highlight • Monument

An Art Nouveau building, designed in 1913 and built around the time of World War I, originally intended to host parties and events. It underwent several renovations, and was finally restored in 1996 and converted to host parties and events. So, no change of use has occurred. The building's structure is very linear, almost rationalist, and only the decoration betrays the original Art Nouveau style. In front, a lovely square (unfortunately used as a parking lot) and several tree-lined avenues. A beautiful building in a lovely setting.

Col de l'Echelle

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Scala hill (in French Col de l'Échelle) is located on the Italian-French border and is a rather easy climb if tackled from Briançon, while it is long and hard from Bardonecchia. If on the French side only the last two/three kilometers are really uphill, the Piedmont side presents the central five kilometers at 7% with peaks in double figures for trained legs. It is particularly beautiful to observe, while climbing by bike, the Red Spire, one of the most famous mountains in the Cottian Alps.
