Through the vineyards
Overview
Intro
The perfect way to discover the Valais.
Description
This route is a trip through the wine-growing region of the Valais. The 82km trail winds up and down along the sun-drenched north flank of the main valley from Martigny to Leuk, through carefully cultivated vineyards and historic locations. You find yourself climbing through the beautiful terraced vineyards on quiet back roads with stunning views over the Rhone valley. Small wine producing villages along the route offer wine tasting mostly without appointment. With around 40 types of grapes grown in the Valais, you are spoilt for choice. Take a different route on the return leg by either cycling along the Rhone river or catching the train back to Martigny.
