Set out to explore the mountainous regions of Monthey—its geography, geology, alpine pastures, and cultural heritage.
A short guided hike on a 6-kilometer loop starting from Vallon de They. While the town is well known for its social, economic, and historical features, it is less well known for its mountains. In fact, since the 14th century and on both sides of the Vièze River, the town has developed alpine peaks ideal for tourism and agro-pastoral activities.
