Terme di Pré Saint Didier in Valle d'Aosta
February 25, 2015Situated in the heart of Aosta Valley, the Pré Saint Didier Thermal Spa is the perfect place to unwind from the daily chaos and take a break to relax.
Pré-Saint-Didier is located in Valdigne, the high valley of Dora Baltea, about 1,000 meters high above the sea level. Just a short walk away from the city center, stands the deep and narrow Ravine, which was dug by the impetuous flow of the Dora of Verney. Next to the waterfall gush two thermal springs, of about 22 °C and 36 °C, which enabled the construction of a spa with unique and impressive charm. The structure is very old, having been built in 1834, but it has recently undergone some renovations, therefore coming back to life after decades of inactivity. As of today, it retains the original architecture of the building, which further increases the value and attractiveness of the spa.
Warm and rich in iron, these thermal waters were already known and appreciated in Roman times, but it is from the middle of the Seventeenth century that a constant and flourishing tourism has arisen.
The selection of services at the Pré-Saint-Didier Thermal Spa is wide and varied: in addition to several hot tubs, you can take advantage of saunas at 80 °C and 90 °C, or relax with a traditional and always appreciated massage.
