With views of the Dent de Nendaz, Mont Gond and Mont Gelé, you can climb hairpin bends to the Col de la Croix de Coeur. The last climb is on a unpaved road and the view up is absolutely fantastic. Just like the cyclists of the Tour de Suisse and Tour de France 2009, you take the southern ramp to Verbier.

Via Ferrata to Mont de l'Arpille Summit

Highlight • Climb

A small section of climbing on the metal provides access to the rocky summit. It's worth it for the views, but only if you're comfortable with heights and ladders!

Savoleyres lift station

Highlight • Rest Area

The top of the Savoleyres chair lift, running in the summer months.
Amazing walking (and cycling) from here, including Pierre Avoi and an easy path across to the other lift at Ruinettes.
