Li Tzatagni

Hey, I'm Alessia

My name is Alessia, and I come from the Champorcher Valley. For the past twenty years, I have been managing my family's agriturismo, Le Moulin des Aravis. I have a deep love for my land, its traditions, and the surrounding nature, but I have always felt the pull of freedom, travel, and encounters with different cultures—values I find every day in this valley. This desire led to the creation of Li Tzatagni, a place that embodies my approach to hospitality, characterized by discretion and respect for the guests' time and space. I have chosen a management style that grants maximum autonomy to those who decide to stay here, allowing them to experience their visit in complete freedom while still being available for those who wish to get to know me or seek advice at the agriturismo. I believe that the deep connection between the people living in these mountains and the land is a valuable heritage that requires daily commitment, passion, and respect. Li Tzatagni represents all of this for me: an authentic place born from the careful and respectful restoration by Elena and Luca, where every detail tells the story of this valley. I remain a point of contact at Le Moulin des Aravis, ready to welcome you if you wish to explore the more agricultural side of our reality or simply have a chat. At Li Tzatagni, on the other hand, you can expect a tailored stay filled with silence, nature, and freedom.

Area Campagna

Li Tzatagni guesthouse is situated in the heart of the Champorcher Valley, in the small hamlet of Châteigne, a true mountain village where time seems to have stood still. This secluded corner of the lower Aosta Valley retains the charm of its rural origins, surrounded by lush and protected nature, featuring ancient forests, monumental chestnut trees, and historic terraced fields that tell tales of farming life.

The location is perfect for those who wish to experience the mountain in its most authentic form, away from the more popular tourist routes. Pontboset, with its stone bridges spanning the Ayasse stream and narrow cobblestone streets, is the first village of the valley and serves as the gateway to an area ripe for exploration. From here, numerous trails suitable for all levels of experience wind through pristine forests, clearings, and ancient villages, offering stunning views of the valley and surrounding peaks.

Just a few minutes from Li Tzatagni lies the Mont Avic Natural Park, the first protected area in the region, a true haven for nature lovers and hikers. The park is home to remarkable biodiversity, featuring alpine lakes with crystal-clear waters, peat bogs, and a rich variety of fauna and flora. Each season brings different colors and sensations, from spring blossoms to the warm hues of autumn, and the snowy landscapes of winter.

The area also serves as an excellent starting point for discovering the culture and traditions of the Aosta Valley. Within a few kilometers, one can visit medieval castles, such as the one in Bard that overlooks the valley's entrance, and small villages where ancient crafts and mountain-related knowledge still thrive. Sports enthusiasts will find nearby trails for trekking, climbing, mountain biking, and, during the winter months, opportunities for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.

There are plenty of opportunities to taste the local cuisine, with farm-to-table products and traditional dishes that narrate the history of these mountains. The proximity to the Moulin des Aravis agriturismo allows for a complete experience, combining nature, culture, and authentic flavors while discovering a lesser-known but charming and authentic Aosta Valley.
