What equipment would be necessary?

This church is one of the most interesting examples of Carolingian art found in southern Switzerland. Built of natural stone, the church impresses with its austere Romanesque style. Although it was first mentioned in 1153 in the papal bull of Pope Eugene III, it was already over a hundred years old at that time. During the excavations carried out during the last restoration work (1963-1967), François Olivier Dubuis, abbot and cantonal archaeologist, was able to confirm that the entire building dates back to the first half of the 11th century. Only the two floors of the octagonal tower, made of brick and tuff, were built somewhat later.

Three-aisled Romanesque church from the 11th century with an octagonal crossing tower. It is built from rubble stones from the limestone, marl and siliceous slate found in the area.

Perfect for a stopover. With a small playground

The hiking trail around the lake was not in good condition everywhere on Sept. 24. There may have been more water coming from the stream than before.

Keep your eyes open. There is a lot to see when hiking!

In September you can hear deer roaring and with a bit of luck you might even spot some animals.

Very nice little town in the Swiss Alps, not far from Sion. Surrounded by the mountains and vineyards, the ski resorts are not far, with some big cycling climbs accessible in the summer months.
