9. VERCORIN

The charm and authenticity of the village of Vercorin will transport you to a bygone age. Its raccards (granaries), barns and haylofts, with their timbers blackened by time, will enchant you. The gateway to the nature reserve of the Vallon de Réchy, “the natural jewel of the region”, Vercorin is surrounded by nature and its panoramic views over the Alps and the Rhone valley make it an ideal viewing gallery over Valais.

Innumerable walks, bisses (irrigation channels) and educational trails start from Vercorin; these are a perfect way to explore the amazing, varied landscape. A large number of summer activities enable you to unwind and recharge your batteries (paragliding, mountain biking, Adventure Forest, the Three Bisses Circuit, scooters, events, etc.)
