The devil’s cage: the valley of Grauson

No other place in the Valle d’Aosta is so interesting in terms of flowers due to the presence of glacial relicts and native plants typical to the Alpine environment as the Grauson Valley. An excursion in this valley means being immersed in a wild territory, dominated by nature and by a strong sense of spirituality that permeates the numerous legends of the Valley, like that of Bécquet de Tarabouq, a chapel in which it is said that St Bernard has locked up no less than the Devil himself.
