Annivers valley, south of the Rhone River Valley is a magical place, a 21st century Brigadoon, yet undiscovered by the tourism industry. You’ll stay at a small family run hotel with a view of the backside of the Matterhorn from your balcony. St Luc is one of several small villages you’ll visit and yes, there will be time to linger and to sip a café au lait.

We ride trams to high valleys, walk through dense conifer forests, follow footpaths up and down river gorges and picnic alongside alpine streams.

At the end of the day a gourmet French dinner and your down comforter await.
