Living the high life

Raclette and snowshoes

Gastronomy and adventure

Veröffentlichung

It sounds like something out of a dream: a slow 1.5-hour evening climb up the mountain in snowshoes until you reach the hamlet of Colombire, where you visit the old mayen chalets and enjoy a wood-fired raclette (with all-you-can-eat polenta and potatoes) to warm up. How do you get home? Strap on your headlamp and sled all the way to Aminona, of course! This winter, it takes place five times between January 26-February 4, and the daytime option — which allows you to soak in stunning views of the Valais Alps — takes place three times between December 28-February 4. The hamlet reopens on December 20.
