Top 10 Nature & Wildlife Areas in Canton of Valais, Swiss Alps
At the foot of the Swiss Alps lies Valais, "the valley." This fabled region is a year-round favorite, with spectacular skiing in the winter and superb hiking in summer. The Matterhorn, the Great St. Bernard Pass and Zermatt are the stars of the area, but glaciers, lakes, mountain paths, castle-churches and a wealth of resorts also beckon. Visit L'Hospice du Grand St. Bernard to see the animals who helped the monks rescue travelers or the Fondation Pierre Gianadda, Roman ruins that now house modern art.

7. Mont-Rouge
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 3 reviews
Incredible high-altitude hike, between the ‘Val d'Heremence’ and the’ Vallon de Nendaz’. Departure from Thyon, access via the Veysonnaz gondola or by road to Thyon 2000. You can recognize the Mont-Rouge by its cross, which looks out over our mountain pastures, simple and welcoming, it invites you to a well-deserved rest and offers you a magical panoramic view.

Reviewed By DnA38 - Boechout, Belgium
Having visited most Wallis and Berner Oberland hut during climbs and hikes, this one certainly stands out in terms of comfort, well being and facilities: nice beds, seperate rooms, clean toilets and even hot showers.Tremendous views through the floor high windows. No marschtee in the morning however. Very close to the parking so lots of tourists, but nothing anoying.
