Grand Bisse de Lens

Highlight • Trail

A great hike along the large Bisse, with a constant great view of the Rhone Valley. All dangerous spots are secured. However, you shouldn't be afraid of heights.

The breathtaking view over the valley towards Sion is priceless. The mountains to the left and right of the valley complete the picture.

Old Village of Lens

Highlight • Settlement

The old part of the village is very pleasant with many old wooden houses. A walking tour of the old village is well worth the detour.

A tour in two parts, in the truest sense of the word. On the one hand beautiful, on the other hand questionable and unnecessarily dangerous. I therefore only recommend the part from Chermignon to the hairpin bend below Le Châtelard.

Since the weather in the Saas Valley was bad for hiking, our landlord recommended that we take a trip to the Rhone Valley. No sooner said than done. We drove to the Crans Montana region and the sun was with us all day🌞. A great tour that I can only recommend👍!
Thanks David for the tip🙏.

The Bisse de Lens, built in the 15th century, leads you along a narrow path directly beside the watercourse.
