Named by the Romans Auri Fondinae (gold mine), for the deposits of the precious metal of the Val Ferret, privileged resort of the dukes of Savoy, Courmayeur is still the most fashionable resort of the valley. It is frequented by a wealthy clientele, who appreciate the luxury shops and chic craft stores (Via Roma). But the main attraction of Courmayeur is the Mont Blanc cable car, which imposes its massive presence on the resort. Thanks to the cable car, which flies over the mer de Glace and goes up to the Aiguille du Midi, it is possible to go back and forth between Chamonix and Courmayeur in a day.
