The Swiss Alps / Valais/Swiss Alps region

The Thyon/Les Collons region is nestled right in the heart of the Valais Alps, in the French speaking part of Switzerland – one of the sunniest regions in Switzerland. Just 35 minute drive from Sion, the capital of the Valais, it offers spectacular mountain views of the Dent Blanche, the Matterhorn and the Val des Dix.

The Les Collons / Thyon area

Winter: Les Collons is a snow-sure resort and is the perfect location for skiers with the chalet situated right next to the piste. You can ski directly back to the chalet via red & blue runs. The chalet stands at 1950m/6,200 ft. From Thyon/Les Collons you have access to over 400km of ski pistes as part of the huge 4 Vallees Ski Region including the famous Piste de L’Ours. This means you can ski from Thyon right across the valleys to Verbier and Mont Fort glacier. Snow from December to April. Free ski bus around resort/up to Thyon 2000. The ski area above Les Collons has wide open and sunny slopes. There are ski schools in both Les Collons and Thyon 2000. (see www.ess-thyon.ch) Local ski hire/sports shops. (see www.genoletsports.ch)


Summer: The pastures burst into bloom and you are surrounded by the beautiful flora and fauna and fruit trees in the Valais. There is plenty on offer in the Rhone valley with golf courses, outdoor swimming pools and relax in the natural thermal baths at SaillonLes Bains and Leukerbad. Sample the quality local wines on a guided wine-tasting tour. Explore the numerous marked hiking paths, walk along the "bisses"/water courses amongst the hillside vineyards as well as horse-riding and mountain-biking. Visit the historic capital town of Sion with its impressive hill-top castles and museums. Take a trip up to the imposing Grande Dixence Dam - the highest in Europe and visit the Lac de Cleuson in the adjacent valley.

“A beautiful chalet set in the most beautiful scenery” We arrived in the dark and were absolutely knocked out the following morning when we opened the curtains to the view of the snowy mountains and ski slopes. A lovely chalet in a peaceful setting with all the comforts of home. Where better to spend Christmas Day!
