119 PAVILLON_THE MOUNTAIN At 2,173 meters above sea level, the mountain reveals itself in all its beauty, breath-taking views, and unspoiled nature: here a large terrace offers a 180 ° view of Mont Blanc and Val Veny. Inside the Pavillon station, you can stop for a break at the Mountain Bar where you can taste a sandwich, a salad, or a homemade dessert. If you prefer a gourmet and refined lunch, you can choose the Alpine Restaurant. If you want a cocktail or an aperitif on the terrace, you can sit on the new Sky Garden Courmayeur by Red Bull. Here it is also possible to visit the Alpine Cinema with a capacity of over 150 people which shows, all day, videos of the Aosta Valley. Absolutely not to be missed are the Cave Mont Blanc which experiences high-altitude winemaking, the Mountain Store where you can find the right idea for a gift and the Hangar 2173, located in the old station, where you can discover the history of cable cars. In summer you can visit the Saussurea Botanical Garden with its 900 flora species from all over the world, included in the ticket, while the Skyway for kids’ playground welcomes young visitors. In winter, the Infinity Walk offers the opportunity for an unforgettable stroll at the foot of Mont Blanc with snowshoes or technical boots. PUNTA HELBRONNER_THE SKY At 3,466 meters above sea level, it is the lowest point in the sky, but also the highest point in Italy. Once you reach the third station of Skyway Monte Bianco, from the circular terrace “360 ° Observatory”, you feel like you can touch the mountains all around. The view extends over the “four thousand” of the Western Alps: the nearby peaks of the Mont Blanc massif, Monte Rosa, the Matterhorn, the Gran Paradiso, and the Grand Combin. Inside LaFeltrinelli, the highest bookshop in Europe, welcomes curious readers and travellers, the crystal room exhibits the jewels of these mountains, the Mont Blanc room allows you to admire fantastic scenarios even on cold and windy days, and Sky Vertigo gives the sensation of walking in the air, and the Kartell Bistrot Panoramic invites you to a lunch break at high altitude to savour the authentic flavours of the Aosta Valley.
