The Canton Wallis in Schweiz

If you say the word Wallis you think of mountains, hiking, skiing, sun, wine and a lot more besides.

At the heart of this unique and multi-faceted treasure trove for the holiday-maker are located the towns Brig, Visp, Sierre, Sion, Martigny and St. Maurice.

And catching your eye, the Matterhorn or the Aletsch Glacier in the first UNESCO World Heritage Site. And running through is the Rhone valley!

Wallis is one of the holiday destinations with the most contrasts. Here curative springs compete with culinary specialities. You sense the sun in the wine.

The abundance of sights, the various entertainment, sports and shopping facilities round off what this unique region has to offer. If you visit the castles, churches and museums, you will get closer to Wallis, its history and its people and you will want to visit them again.
