The region Verbier St-Bernard
Verbier - St Bernard, a mountainous area to discover
Canton Valais is famous for its mountains and 4000 m peaks. But it's also a country where people are deeply attached to their culture and heritage, a country where cows can become queens for a year and cheese is a high-quality product best enjoyed with friends. It's also a fantastic playground for outdoor sports such as skiing, hiking, paragliding, mountaineering, and of course, trail running. A country that lives largely off tourism and strives to be welcoming, offering you the very best it has to offer.
