Morgins

So close to the border and so resolutely Valaisan, the resort of Morgins is its canton’s embodiment of conviviality. Here, you can enjoy the life of a “true” Morginois, as you are welcomed with open arms. The restaurateurs are happy to serve quality dishes using (very) local produce. Naturally, winter sports are part of the local DNA…

Whether you’re on skis, skins or snowshoes, the panoramic views from the heights of Morgins are breathtaking. From the summit of La Foilleuse, you can see Les Cornettes de Bise – one of the highest peaks in the Vallée d’Abondance – on one side and the majestic Dents du Midi on the other. Between forests and pastures, the ski slopes that open onto the Portes du Soleil and the Rando-Parc for ski touring, give the resort a hybrid character to satisfy every appetite!

The Hérens cows have taken up residence on the They mountain pasture, the waters of the Vièze have been released from the grip of the cold and the Christmas tunes have given way to the melodies of happiness played by the Carillon in the centre of the village. Morgins is revealing itself in a new light for the summer season! Everyone is enjoying the warm atmosphere of an authentic mountain village with Swiss chalets where it’s good to be. As anyone who has been here will tell you, once you’ve had a taste of Morgins, it’s hard to put it down…

After taking the Foilleuse ascent, the most experienced mountain bikers can let off the brakes at the Bikepark or ride the Grand 8 loop on an E-bike under the benevolent gaze of the surrounding peaks. Of course, mountain biking is king in Morgins… But the walks and hikes around the Pointe de Bellevue offer 360° views of Lake Geneva and the Rhone plain alongside the Dents du Midi. The They valley is ideal for picnics, and younger visitors can enjoy lapping up the waters of the Vièze. The colourful landscapes invite you to relax, lulled by the murmur of springs and torrents…
