Bessans en Maurienne (bis)
<p>Bessans, <em>Alpine</em> and <em>Savoyarde</em>, of Maurienne and Vanoise, laying in the opulent cradle of the valley; watched by high fairies of 3,000 meters, Bessans appears at the bend of a meander of the Arc and smiles at us with his first stone roofs: it is a village of high mountains, the summer bathed in pastures and all dressed in green and flowers, the winter and more, buried under the white of exuberant snow.</p><p> </p><p><img alt="" width="100%" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/500995/2-1522252001.png" /></p><p> </p><p>Bessans which stretches towards its hamlets, its alpine chalets, its so-called places. So many names that sing the valley: Vallon and Villaron, Avérole and Travérole, Buffaz and Goulaz, Chalp, Vincendières under the eyes of the mountains and glaciers: Tierce, Soliet, Albaron or Charbonnel, and even Martin or Ouille Allegra. A whole program, trek on foot, climbing, cycling, or skiing. It is today's Bessans that adds to its many facets, the sporting pleasure of a generous nature.</p><p> </p><p><img alt="" width="100%" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/500996/3-1522252013.png" /></p><p> </p><p>This 26x13cm travel notebook is a beautiful object with a soft cover casted with glacier blue, silky vellum and rounded corners. 72 pages of introduction and photos of an ode to the mountain men and a prodigal but fragile nature.</p>
