⁣ Canon EOS 250D | 18mm | 1/320s | f/9 | ISO 200⁣ Taken on 24/07/2020.⁣ ⁣ Leverogne is a small, quiet and pretty alpine village 15km west of Aosta that has several noteworthy buildings dating back centuries.⁣ ⁣ The bridge captured in this photo used to be the only way to cross the gorge on the Valgrisenche stream and get to the Valgrisenche valley and the Col du Mont pass straddling Italy and France.⁣ ⁣ Also worth visiting – but requiring a long, steep climb – is the Santuario di Rochefort where you are rewarded with breathtaking views of the Alps and the valley below.⁣ ⁣ 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲:⁣ ⁣ Catch the 581 or 110 bus from Aosta or Courmayeur with 'SAVDA'. While you're in Leverogne, it's worth getting on the 541 bus to Valgrisenche: one of the lesser-known valleys in the Aosta Valley region.⁣ ______________________________________⁣ ⁣ #Leverogne #ValdAosta #LoveVDA #ValledAosta #ValleedAoste #AostaValley #IgersValledAosta #VolgoValledAosta #MountainScenery #BeautyInNature #RoadToValledAosta #SiViaggiare_ValledAosta #Scatto_Italiano #Italia #Italy #BorgoDeiBorghi #Borghi_World #BorghiRitrovati #Italy_Ig #VivoValledAosta #NatGeoLandscape #PassionPassport #InstaPicOfTheDay #JustGoShoot #WanderLust #HiddenGem #BrowsingItaly #FramesOfItaly #FindItLiveIt #TravelAwesome (at Leverogne La Ravoire, Valle D'Aosta, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKza8BFFW5f/?igshid=ms9ptrpbzn1e

at 11 55 at the turn in the road,  just out of the town (5 or 10 minutes out of Villard [Villair]) from which remarkably fine view of Mt. Blanc – the top quite découvert – had been on the watch ever since leaving Prés St. D- [Pré St. Didier] and had often seen bits of the top, but never the whole together as now – clouds still floating across and hiding the middle of the mountain.                         A- walked 50 minutes - a lady and gentleman said to be English passed us just before remounting our mules at 12 ½ - at 1 passed good bridge over the Doria and from here for about 100 yards length a more nice new road about 15ft. wide, at the other end of which people busy filling up with green branches of fir the charpente of a triumphal arch for the princes to pass under – it had really a very good effect – several pieces of the new road afterwards cut out of the rock – very fine – the rapid white Doria deep below - at 1 ½ the road winds and we lose out full view of Mt. Blanc - I had had a clear full view of him unimpeded by clouds for 2 or 3 minutes - all believe the perpetual snow (about in a line with the base of the above diagram) seemed one enormous mass of yellowish-hoary rock hérissé and [crenellé] with points of rock almost like the minarets of a gothic church - everything about this King of Europe mountains interests me - at 1 40 neat  white convent and church and old castle-house and a few cottages on the hill (left) the other side the river - (St. Nicholas, probably) pass thro’ the little village of Livrogne [Leverogne], and 20 minutes after (at 2 8) - stopt at Arvier to bait the mules, at a worse looking auberge than the one we had passed at Livrogne [Leverogne] – annoyed at this – however A- ate her cold fowl and lay down as usual and we managed very tolerably – the English lady and gentleman, the people told as we passed were at the Auberge at Livrogne [Leverogne]  - all the villages and the little towns have very narrow street (channels in the middle) 9 to 10 ft wide, the over-hanging roofs very nearly meeting the top, as at Dolina [Dolonne] near Courmayeur -  off from Arvier at 3 22 – 1st view of Aoste, in the distance from the top of the hill at 4 ¾ - then last till near arriving - A- and I walked from 5 to 5 ¾ - at the Ecu de Valais (kept by the master of L’ange at Courmayeur) at 6 ¼

27 juillet ▪️ LEVEROGNE - MONGEX

<p>24,6 km▪️ 8h05 ▪️+1 258 / -1 124 m</p>

Édition spéciale – Édition spéciale – Édition spéciale On a retrouvé le Sphinx du pissenlit ! Nous retrouvons tout de suite notre envoyé spécial sur place : — Jean-Kevin, vous m’entendez ? — (Après 30 secondes à fixer la caméra le regard abruti) Oui je vous entends très bien, Yves ! — Ici ce n’est pas Yves mais Sonia. Mais ce n’est pas grave Jean-Kevin. On vous écoute. Expliquez-nous où vous vous trouvez. — (Après 30 secondes à fixer la caméra le regard abruti) Excusez-moi Sofia. Alors là je me trouve à Morgex à côté de monsieur MirBen qui faisait partie de l’équipe de recherche et qui a fait l’incroyable découverte. Monsieur Mirben, pouvez-vous nous raconter comment cela s’est-il passé ? — Et bien, sans grand espoir, puisque les recherches étaient restées vaines jusqu’à présent, nous avions décidé d’explorer le tronçon Leverogne - Morgex. L’équipe venait de gravir plusieurs centaines de mètres en explorant avec attention les bords du chemin quand tout à coup… — Quand tout à coup quoi Monsieur Mirben ? — Quand tout à coup, disais-je avant que vous ne m’interrom - passiez - pissiez - pîtes - piez - m’interrompiez, nous décidâmes de faire une pause pour boire un coup car vous savez combien l’hydratation est importante lorsqu’on marche en montagne. — Et alors, Monsieur Mirben ? — Il est arrivé pour butiner la fleur à côté de laquelle j’avais posé mon sac. — Qui ça ”il” ? — Eh bien le Sphinx du pissenlit ! Vous suivez ou quoi ? Amata phegea en personne ! — Et alors, Monsieur Mirben, vous pouvez nous en dire plus ? — Ben on était content. On lui a demandé s’il allait bien et s’il était d’accord pour une petite séance de shooting photo, ce qu’il a accepté. — Et ensuite ? — Excusez-moi Jean-Kevin mais on va devoir se quitter car nous avons un direct avec l’institutrice de CP d’Alexandre Benalla et elle a des informations exclusives à nous révéler ! Jean-Maurice, c’est à vous !

Après cette joyeuse et fortuite rencontre, le plus dur restait à venir ! Ce qui devait être une petite étape de transition avant la grande étape du col du petit Saint Bernard est peut-être ce qui restera comme une des étapes les plus difficiles de cette saison. Est-ce vraiment étonnant ? Pas quand on connaît le machiavélisme de Monsieur Zouzou ! Pour passer de Leverogne à Morgex, 130 m plus haut dans la vallée, on se tape 1260 m de dénivelé ! Et quel dénivelé ! Du chemin raide qui monte quasi tout droit dans la forêt pentue. Oui c’est joli, ça sent bon les aiguilles de pin et la mousse, mais n’empêche ! Et on ajoute une jonction (entre le chemin qui monte tout droit et le chemin en balcon qui va nous faire avancer un peu quand même vers Morgex) qui n’existe pas physiquement et qui nous oblige à faire du hors-sentier en forêt dans la pente, c’est pas coton ! Et enfin la batterie du téléphone, sollicitée sauvagement par la lecture du GPS en l’absence de balisage et de chemin, qui décline plus vite que prévue ! Sans parler du rendez-vous à 17h00 devant l’église de Morgex pour récupérer les clés du B&B (je pensais arriver cool vers 16h30) qu’on a repoussé à 18h30 et auquel on est arrivé à… 18h30 en ayant adopter la cadence de combat sur les derniers kilomètres ! Bref, nous voilà dans les meilleurs conditions musculaires pour le gros dénivelé de demain !

Mais c’est aussi notre dernière soirée en Italie. Pas question de manquer les deux incontournables que nous ne trouverons plus en France : l’aperitivo avec le fameux Spritz Aperol (on en profite pour porter un toast au Sphinx du pissenlit et maudire Monsieur Zouzou pour trois générations de plus, ce qui doit porter le total à 21) et la gelato en cono à déguster en se promenant après le repas dans le vieux et typique Morgex. La dolce vita quoi !
