Tips

May 9, 2022

Mountain biking

Varen offers a magnificent view of the Rhone Valley. The pretty wine village has a very special flair. The focus is on natural viticulture. The butterfly serves as a symbol for this and is also the namesake for the well-known Pfyfoltru wine. If you happen to be here at the end of September, then don't miss the popular wine festival - you can find more information here: weininsel.ch/pro-varen/weinfest-varen.

Hiking

The wine from which the well-known Pfyfoltru is pressed grows around Varen. This name means "butterfly" in the Valais dialect. In Varen you can taste the delicious wine in several places, stroll through the vineyards and let yourself be pampered.
