Challand-Saint-Anselme — Castello di Villa
Aosta Valley
Challand-Saint-Anselme's modest castle watches over the lower approach to the Val d'Ayas, a valley better known further up for its high lakes and Monte Rosa views. The village and castle grounds give an easier, valley-floor counterpoint to those higher, more strenuous routes.
