Balade Musicale: Art in Alps
Board the cable car from Médran for an ascent to Les Ruinettes, where an immersive hike awaits you, guided by Cherries. Traverse the Verbier 3-D Sculpture Park, an artistic trail dotted with monumental works, as breathtaking panoramas of the Val de Bagnes unfold before your eyes. Along the way, be surprised by musical interludes performed by musicians from the Verbier Festival, delighting young and old alike. Your journey concludes at La Chaux, an alpine pasture at 2,260 meters above sea level, for a grand outdoor buffet hosted by Téléverbier. Once refreshed, dance to the funk, New Orleans, Caribbean, and African rhythms of the Skokiann Brass Band, creating a festive and unforgettable atmosphere in the heart of the mountains.
