Cycling holiday Valais Vine Trail
Cycling: Valais wine trail
On the sunny side of the Rhone Valley, some of the best wines in Switzerland mature. Your cycling trip on the Valais Vine Trail takes you through this romantic scenery. The vineyards line the path on your way towards the eastern part of the valley, past the churches and castles of Sion to the market place of Leuk. On the way you will enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the Valais mountains and a variety of culinary delicacies.
Arrival to Martigny
Martigny – Sion
You leave your luggage in Martigny. An energetic up and down on a steep sun-kissed southern slope, through well-tended vineyards, small wine villages and historic spots such as Saillon with the mini-vineyard of forger Farinet and Chamoson, with the octagonal tower of St-Pierre-de-Clages. After your arrival in Sion a tasting of wines from Valais awaits you.
Sion – Leuk
French-style joie-de vivre in Sion, the quaint main town, back-breaking work in the hot, steep vineyard slopes, perspiring round bends on tiny, boiling-hot mountain roads. To understand the wine culture in Valais better, you will visit the wine museums in Sierre and Salgesch. Together with the fabulous views today, this is a feast for all your senses.
Departure or individual extension
Tour characteristic
A comfortable start on the first day, after that the trip becomes more difficult. The ride through the vineyards on the sunny slopes of the Rhône Valley on the second day is challenging. The tour leads on quiet side roads in the middle of the unique alpine scenery of Valais.
