An exclusive journey in the sunny side of Matterhorn, where nature, history, and flavor come together in an unforgettable experience. From the refined welcome of an Ecoluxury Retreat nestled in the mountains, to the pristine landscapes of the Bayettes nature reserve, among ibexes and ancient alpine huts, passing through medieval castles, Roman remains, and fine mountain wines.
And let’s not forget Cervinia, with its enchanting Lago Blu, majestic peaks, and moments of pure relaxation.
Make your way independently to your Ecoluxury Retreat Hermitage.
Check-in at the hotel and free time to enjoy the services and facilities of the property.

After breakfast, meet your local guide for a trekking excursion through the Bayettes Nature Reserve.
Located in the beautiful Marmore Valley, on the right side of the Cervino Valley, Bayettes spans over 4 km² between 2,000 and 3,300 meters above sea level. This breathtaking and untouched landscape is home to ancient alpine huts, once shelters for shepherds and their flocks. The reserve protects a rich and diverse flora and a freely roaming wildlife: chamois, ibexes, marmots, eagles, and falcons. A true corner of paradise where nature reigns supreme.
Enjoy a packed lunch during the hike. Free time back at the hotel.
This activity is weather-dependent: in case of bad weather, the excursion may be modified or rescheduled in agreement with the local guide.
In the morning, visit the Castle of Fénis, one of the best-preserved medieval castles in the region, featuring a double crenelated wall and elegant towers.
Pass through the square tower to explore the Hall of Arms, the monumental kitchen fireplace, the refectory, the noble floor with reception rooms, and a chapel adorned with frescoes.
At the heart of the manor lies the painted courtyard, with its semicircular staircase, wise men, prophets, and saints like St. George and St. Christopher watching over you.
After visiting the castle, continue to Aosta. The ancient Augusta Praetoria is well worth a visit: begin with the impressive Arch of Augustus, a Roman symbol of the city, then walk through the perfectly preserved Porta Praetoria. Visit the majestic Roman Theatre and the evocative Cryptoporticus, both lasting testaments to ancient Roman civilization.
Admire the Cathedral with its medieval frescoes and end your visit strolling through the historic centre, where every stone tells centuries of stories.
End the day discovering high-altitude winemaking among mountain terraces and native grape varieties. Visit a renowned local winery, known for its daring architecture and the exceptional quality of its wines, which you’ll taste during a guided wine tasting.
Return to the hotel for overnight stay.
Today is yours to explore Cervinia at your own pace.
Begin with a moment of pure wellness in your hotel’s Spa — the perfect alpine escape for relaxation. Nature lovers can take a short hike to the beautiful Lago Blu, famous for its crystal-clear waters reflecting the mighty profile of the Matterhorn. Sport enthusiasts can challenge themselves on Italy’s highest 18-hole golf course, a unique experience surrounded by spectacular peaks and fresh mountain air.
If you're looking for a high-altitude adventure, take the cable car to Plateau Rosa and enjoy an unforgettable ride up to 3,500 meters. From the top, the panorama opens onto a world of glaciers and majestic peaks straddling the border between Italy and Switzerland — a breathtaking view.
Whatever you choose, you're in for an unforgettable day of relaxation, nature, and stunning alpine scenery.
