A river valley carving its way through the mountains
Rhone valley is a long, wide stretch of land in France and Switzerland where the river Rhône has carved a path between the mountains. Many delightful towns and cities can be found along this route, as well as vineyards, activity centres, lakes and other unmissable stops.
This journey is a dynamic way to see a range of Switzerland’s culture and beauty. Begin in the French-speaking region by exploring Sion, with its twin hilltop castles, and Sierre, the “City of the Sun”.
Then enter the German-speaking Alps and follow the valley up to Interlaken. This resort town is nestled between 2 vast lakes and is known as the “adventure capital” of Switzerland.
As you drive, you will be rewarded with endless views of the mountains around you. You can truly make this adventure your own with an incredible choice of places to visit.
Often blessed with warm and dry weather, the region is full of opportunities and idyllic spots if you’re a hiker or swimmer. Stop wherever takes your fancy!
