    Hiking

    At Martigny, the Rhône bends strikingly almost exactly at a 90 ° angle in a northerly direction towards Lake Geneva. On the sandy shore path you can stroll away from the road comfortably before the Rhoneknie even then the landscape impression of transport infrastructure (highway, railway line, channels) is dominated. But it is an ancient traffic junction and the long-distance hiker meets here on the Via Francigena, the ancient pilgrimage route to Rome, which runs at the western edge of the valley towards Martigny and on to the Great St. Bernard Pass.
