Overview

Sport, nature and the history of Italian mountaineering

The Valli di Lanzo, in local dialect Valade ‘d Lans, is the beating heart of the Graian Alps.

The Lanzo Valleys are equipped to offer sports, activities and entertainment that are accessible and affordable to all guests, offering a fantastic opportunity to experience great thrills and discover a rich territory.
