CHAMOUSIRA GOLD MINES
Gold mine in a dense forest above Brusson, the most important one in the Aosta Valley.
The largest gold mine in the Aosta Valley is hidden by the dense fir forest above Brusson. In operation since the early 20th century, it comprises 7 levels of tunnels up to 1,600 metres long. The guided tour inside the tunnels is equipped with a protective helmet and foulies provided at the start of the tour. Beware, however, of the damp environment, the steps, the darkness (take a headlamp) and the short 20-minute trot to the tunnel entrance (leave early to avoid delays).
