Discover Doues

Positioned on the watershed between two valleys, Doues is a sun-kissed village lying on a natural, south-facing terrace. Only 15 km from the centre of Aosta, at an elevation of 1,175 m within the Grand Combin area, Doues territory covers a total16,48 km2 , where farming and animal husbandry still today play a key role in the local economy.
In this well-tended, stunning environment dominated by pastures and woodlands, tourism lives side by side with a strong desire to valorise the territory, local traditions and products.
Two interesting excursion itineraries take you along the Ru de By and Ru des Monts artificial irrigation channels that convey water to the meadows.
