Breuil-Cervinia, Alpine hamlet in Valtournenche, Italy
Located at 2012 meters elevation, Breuil-Cervinia extends across a mountain valley beneath the Matterhorn peak in the Aosta Valley region.
The settlement transformed from a modest summer pasture with shepherds' cottages into a recognized winter resort destination during the 1850s alpinism period.
The Cervino CineMountain festival exhibits mountain-themed documentaries since 1998, bringing together filmmakers and outdoor enthusiasts each year.
The nearest train station is Chatillon Saint Vincent, with regular bus connections operating between the station and the mountain resort.
The resort maintains skiing activities for eleven months annually through the Plateau Rosa glacier, connecting Italian slopes with Swiss territories.
