Alpine pastures in the Aosta Valley: La Tchavana farmhouse in Ayas

Alpine pastures in the Aosta Valley: La Tchavana farmhouse in Ayas

Alpe Metsan is located in the upper Val d’Ayas, an enchanting place where the Bagnod family opened their "La Tchavana" farmhouse in 1999
During the summer months, the fresh and fragrant grass of the green pastures gives a touch of taste and particular goodness to the mountain Fontina cheese, and also to all the other dairy products: fresh milk, cream butter, yogurt, ricotta and first salt, in addition to cheese tome, flavored and aged in the new cellar recently finished!

For some years now, sheep farming in the Vascoccia pasture has been combined with the breeding of cows, adding to the production the Gran Gessato d’Ayas, a long-aged fat cheese.
On the farm table you can find, in addition to dairy products, sausages and cured meats produced at home and the inevitable polenta that can also be tasted “in concia”, that is topped with butter and plenty of Fontina!

The Bagnod family also organizes themed dinners and guided tours of the farm in July and August (at 4.00 pm every day on request): here you can see the cows grazing, the milking on sight, the maturing of the fontine, the production of Gran Gessato d'Ayas made with sheep's milk and it is possible to buy fresh products at the Alpe Metsan sales point with an extra specialty: ice cream!

La Tchavana farmhouse is easily reachable on foot both from Barmasc, along the beautiful and easy “Ru Courtaud” promenade, which can also be done by mountain bike or horseback, and by climbing from Mandrou on the path that offers a spectacular view of the Monte Rosa glacier.

It is always open, even in winter!

All the comfort you need when enjoying this charming town.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hotel L'Aiglon. Firstly the staff were so pleasant and helpful. The room was fine, next time we'd opt for one with a balcony! Comfortable bed, great shower. Plenty of storage and hooks for all our ski gear! Breakfast was in a lovely sunny room and there was plenty of choice for all nationalities. It's a slow 10 minute walk to the gondola, we opted for storing our gear there, although you can use the hotel's. Wellness centre was a perfect end to the days skiing.Definitely recommend and we'll be back!

Happy Vacation in Hotel L'Aiglon.

Stayed in Hotel L'Aiglon for 3 nights earlier this week. Great place to stay. Rooms were really comfortable and plenty of space and really clean. We received a really warm welcome on arrival and right throughout our stay. Breakfast was included in the price. Food was great - loads of variety and really healthy food to prepare us for the day ahead. Would love to return and stay here again in the future.
