Description

The property is located 2 minutes walk from the main cable car to the Grimentz ski area. The village centre, supermarkets and restaurants are also within a 2 minute walk. The apartment is housed within a traditional wooden chalet with underground car parking and beautiful views across the valley.

Set in the picturesque mountain valley in the French speaking part of the Swiss Alps, the characteristic villages of the Val d’Anniviers have a vast array of amenities. Not only is the valley home to a fantastic range of ski resorts and pistes, the charming communities within the valley provide a great choice of cafes, restaurants, shops and banks, making the area the perfect option for holiday makers looking for the archetypal Swiss retreat.

Situated in canton Valais, the sunniest canton in Switzerland, are many delightful villages featuring narrow streets and pedestrian centres, all stunningly picturesque year round. Val d’Anniviers is not only the perfect place for mountain and sports lovers, but also to families who will appreciate the appeal of the charming communities dotted amongst this beautiful landscape. It is also home to some of Europe's best off-piste skiing and mountain walking.

Reviews

Stunning location, great apartment
I spent a very happy week staying here and was very impressed with the apartment and the resort. It is a very traditional, quaint Swiss village with a good range of skiing, especially for those who love off piste, and great to be away from the overcrowded mass resorts.
