5. St-Luc/Tignousa – Hotel Weisshorn via the Chemin des Planètes

This hike along the edge of the ski area is marked by the various planets of the solar system. On the way there, you’ll be treated to a breathtaking view of the valley floor. A highlight not to be missed: the arrival at the Hotel Weisshorn, still considered today one of the gems of the Anniviers Valley. Enjoy a refreshing drink on the panoramic terrace of this historic hotel. After a well-deserved break, you’ll retrace your steps, taking in a different view all the way back to the funicular station.

OUR ADVICE
At the Weisshorn Hotel, be sure to stop by for a slice of blueberry pie while taking in the breathtaking view.
Don’t miss Planet Park, located right next to the Tignousa restaurant. A unique playground awaits you, featuring a space shuttle, slides, a zip line, swings, and a high ropes course. It’s a little paradise for kids, all with a planetary theme.

Useful information

From the village of St-Luc, take the funicular to Tignousa, where the ski slopes begin. From Tignousa, head toward the Weisshorn Hotel by following the flat, groomed trail. Start by walking to the François-Xavier Bagnoud Observatory, located 100 meters to the right of the funicular’s arrival point. Then take the Chemin des Planètes, which leads to the Weisshorn Hotel. Allow 1 hour and 40 minutes for the walk there, and the same for the return trip.
