Thyon-Les Collons

Thyon-Les Collons is a mountain resort located above Vex and Saint-Martin in the Valais region, at the heart of the 4 Vallées ski area, one of Switzerland's largest. Perched between 1,800 and 2,100 metres above sea level, the resort offers direct access to slopes connecting Veysonnaz, Nendaz, Verbier and Mont-Fort, suited to both beginner and experienced skiers. The surroundings feature chalets and residences scattered across a wooded landscape, with open views over the Valais peaks and, on clear days, towards Mont Blanc. In summer, the area becomes a destination for hiking and mountain biking, with marked trails crossing alpine pastures and larch forests. The village remains quieter and more family-oriented than some other Valais resorts, offering local shops, a handful of restaurants and on-site ski schools. Chairlifts and cable cars provide quick access to the surrounding peaks. Thyon-Les Collons suits travellers seeking an outdoor, sport-focused stay in a typical alpine setting, roughly an hour's drive from Sion.
