The Idyllic Mountain Village with Immeasurable Charm
If you are looking for a typical Valais village and want to fully immerse yourself in the charm of a Valais mountain fairy tale, then Albinen is the place for you. The unique mountain village is around 1300 metres above sea level. Enjoy the long hours of sunshine, the winding streets and the old wooden chalets that have been tanned by the sun for centuries.
Information & Booking
Overview
In the 11th century, a German-speaking community immigrated from Leukerbad, settled in the area and turned today's Albinen into a permanently inhabited and cultivated area. Today, the village boasts numerous typical Valais mountain farmhouses and barns, the famous glass windows of the village church and the wonderful view over the Rhone Valley.
Recharge your batteries with a walk in and around the village, which is rightly included in the list of ‘sites of national importance worth protecting’. Winter sports enthusiasts can take the free ski bus to the Torrent cable car valley station in Leukerbad just 14 minutes away. If you prefer to come by car, you will always find a parking space.
