Things to Do in Conthey 2025

Conthey is a municipality that stretches from the Rhone Valley in the Valais up to the Tsanfleuron Glacier at 3000 meters above sea level. Because of its mild climate in the Rhone Valley, the commune is the fourth largest wine-growing community in Switzerland. Just outside the village of Le Bourg stands the chapel of Sainte-Pétronille, which is well worth seeing. It was built by a patrician family around 1690 and has a richly decorated baroque altar. From Conthey, you can reach the protected valley of Derborence in half an hour by car via an adventurous road. (Photo: Switzerland Tourism, Martin Maegli)
