Description
You start at the end of Lac Moubra, where you have a wonderful view of the holiday resort and the ski slopes. There is also a large parking lot here.
The route leads over the 9-hole golf course, considered one of the most beautiful in Switzerland. It opened in 1951 and, after remodeling and expansion in 1986, was renamed Jack Nicklaus.
Quiet and close to nature, this route offers a wonderful view of the Valais Alps – from the Matterhorn to Mont Blanc. The restaurant terraces on the lakeshore invite you to take a break.
