Journey
Champex‑Lac - Col de la Forclaz
Champex-Lac, Valais, Switzerland
About this stop
Departing idyllic Champex, hikers choose the panoramic Bovine route or rockier Fenêtre d’Arpette variant. Both give sweeping views of the Rhône valley and Trient glacier before converging on Col de la Forclaz, where pink‑shuttered auberges overlook the glacially carved Trient gorge and vineyards of Martigny far below.
