Here you can cycle along a quiet cycle path between the golf course and the Rhone. On one side you can see the orchards and on the other side you can admire the steep slopes with their equally neat vines.

Sion Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

In the lively old town of Sion you will find a variety of restaurants, shops and pretty buildings. Here and there you can also see remnants of the Middle Ages, such as the two castles Valère and Tourbillion, which dominate the hills above the city.

Every Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. the market takes place in the narrow streets, and it is worth a visit, especially for gourmets.
