One of the most underrated places in Switzerland: Val d’Anniviers with its beautiful villages GRIMENTZ and SAINT-LUC! This is the place to go if you want to see pristine alpine villages with NO tourists. Yet, this place remains rather secret; the best reason why you should explore it as soon as possible. The fact that this place is not much visited yet may also be related to its location that is far away from any major city or airport. From Zurich itself it is about a 5-6 hours drive and from Geneva roughly 4-5 hours. Thus, a visit to GRIMENTZ and SAINT-LUC should only be planned if you stay for a couple of days in Switzerland.
The best season to visit Grimentz and Saint-Luc would be during May to early September. It is recommended to explore Grimentz during the morning due to its exposition to the sun. Saint-Luc, which is quite higher up and on the other side of the valley is best to visit during the afternoon. A great hotel to stay at is “Le Grand Chalet Favre”, where you can experience a very authentic alpine Swiss atmosphere. The food served at its restaurant is very delicious. I highly recommend to dine on the balcony to watch the sunset, as you may enjoy a fantastic view from there. Also good to know is the Chalet Favre provides you free admission to the train heading up to the lookout point. It is good to stay up there for about 1 hour, the view is very beautiful, but the place also quite quickly explored.
All in all, it was a fantastic experience to visit the Val d’Anniviers with its picturesque villages of Grimentz and Saint-Luc. A place, I definitely want to revisit, possibly in winter for the next time!
