QC Terme Pré-Saint-Didier
Terme di Pré-Saint-Didier
A historic spa at the foot of Mont Blanc whose outdoor hot pools face the snowy peak. It is the most popular place to relax in the Aosta Valley.
The hot springs at Pré-Saint-Didier were already in use in Roman times, and a spa was built in the 19th century under the Savoy royal family. It is now run by QC Terme, which has several thermal pools, saunas and steam rooms in and around the historic building. The most famous is the outdoor hot pool, where you can soak in water at about 37°C while gazing straight at the snowy peak of Mont Blanc. The view is especially lovely in winter. Advance online booking is required. Admission includes a bathrobe and slippers, and weekends are busy. It is about 30 km west of Aosta and only 5 km from Courmayeur.
