THE

PETIT SAINT-BERNARD PA S S

At an altitude of 2,188m, the Petit-Saint-Bernard pass or Colle del Piccolo San Bernardo marks the border between France and Italy. In summer, it can be accessed via La Rosière by car, bike or on foot, and in winter can only be reached on skis via the Espace San Bernardo ski area. When you go through the pass you cannot help but be moved by the beauty of the landscapes, and soon learn that the site has been an important venue for some historic events.
