Wallis

Valais combines high-alpine terrain with vineyard-lined valley life in a way that reflects its position between the Rhône Valley and the Pennine Alps. These coordinates lie in the Val d’Anniviers, a side valley where the Navizence flows north towards the Rhône and long-settled communities occupy slopes beneath high peaks. Across the canton, mountain pastures, glaciers and celebrated summits shape daily life as much as the broad, productive valley floor. Valais is also Switzerland’s leading wine-producing canton, and its historic bisses—open irrigation channels—show how generations adapted dry sunny slopes for cultivation.
