Plans · Weekend

A weekend in Crans-Montana in summer, with the family

In summer the resort lives between its lakes, the bisses and the high pastures: walk in the morning, swim in the afternoon, and the evenings are long.

With children everything is a shuttle ride away: activities that really keep them busy, tables where they are welcome, nothing too long.

The plan starts from Chetzeron, at 2,112 m, and takes in Restaurant Le Mayen, Cabane des Violettes and Restaurant Le Chalet among others. Every place links to its page, checked at the source.
