Edition 2025 — Batailles de Reines Champillon

In the summer of 2025, the Champillon pasture in Doues also hosted its elimination of the Batailles de Reines, with Aosta breed cows starring in the traditional pasture fights. The day, valid for qualification to the Regional Final, attracted owners and enthusiasts to the pastures at the foot of the Grand Combin, between traditional sport and local gastronomy.

The 2025 Doues-Champillon elimination confirmed the charm of one of the most characteristic summer stages of the Batailles de Reines. On the Champillon pasture, a natural high-altitude amphitheater in the Municipality of Doues, the Aosta Valley queens faced each other with their horns in ritual contests that select the finalists for the Regional Competition. Around the race, the day offered the weighing of the cows, lunch with typical products, and moments of conviviality that make this elimination a true Aosta Valley mountain festival, an integral part of the region's rural identity.
