Road Cycling Highlight (Segment)

Location: Vétroz, Gundis, Conthey, Valais, Switzerland
The road up from Aven to Derborence is an absolute highlight. You always feel like you've been transported to the most beautiful Gorges de la Provence. Small, winding roads flanked by barren, mighty cliffs on one side and a steep precipice down to the Lizerne on the other. Over the years, the Lizerne has cut an impressive gorge into the landscape.A special highlight are the road tunnels along the route. A true work of craftsmanship from the old days. Be sure to bring lights with you. Some of the tunnels are relatively long and the roads narrow.
