CLAVALITE: THE FLAT AREA

At an altitude of about 1500 m, the woods make way for the Clavalité plain, a huge clearing ploughed out by the river of the same name. The landscape, with its snow-capped Punta Tersiva and Matterhorn (Cervino in Italian) mountains as backdrop, is amazing. Only the resident population can go to the plain with car so this delicate ecosystem is safeguarded.

This vast area of level ground favoured the establishment of numerous villages. [view the map]. Nowadays most of the buildings have been restructured and are used for spending some happy times in the sunnier seasons.
