Terme di Vinadio in the high Stura valley of Piedmont, at 920 metres in the Maritime Alps, is the most extensively developed high-altitude thermal establishment in the Piedmont region, set within the Maritime Alps Natural Park adjacent to the French Mercantour National Park. The bicarbonate-calcium springs emerge from granite aquifers in the heart of one of the Alps' largest wilderness areas, and the modern spa complex offers a full range of thermal treatments alongside mountain activities in summer and skiing in winter. The park's extraordinary biodiversity — wolves, chamois, golden eagles and one of Europe's densest populations of ibex — surrounds the thermal establishment with genuinely wild Alpine nature. Terme di Vinadio combines high-quality thermal wellness with some of the most spectacular mountain scenery in Italy.

Insider tip — Terme di Vinadio sits at 900 meters in the Maritime Alps near the French border, channeling calcium-bicarbonate water at 35°C from the crystalline bedrock of the Parco Alpi Marittime. The modern spa is one of the largest and most architecturally striking in Piedmont, with panoramic windows overlooking the Stura valley and Monte Malinvern. The GR10 long-distance trail crosses the passes above the valley, making this an ideal recovery stop for alpine trekkers. September brings fewer visitors than August and still offers favorable mountain weather.
