One of our favorite Swiss things to do is to visit the Cailler
Chocolate Factory in Broc.
Best part is the TASTING room!
We discovered some beautiful hikes this summer, one was to the Durand Falls,
a hike up these steep wooden staircases then a loop around
downhill in the forest....just gorgeous!
The Valais region makes over half of the Swiss wines, so it is beautiful fertile land.
The cousins found some treasures when we went for a picnic along a glacial river in Ovronnaz.

This summer we went up to the Champery area and tried this
"parc animalier" and the kids LOVED it!
A petting zoo, feeding animals, pony riding place.
The Hiatts discovered the Fairy Caves, it was a cool walk through
tunnels to get to an underground waterfall. Really great adventure!
Mateo was in an out of Switzerland this summer, one day we picked him up afterwork in
Lausanne and took him straight to the Trient Gorge.
A fun family day that was soooo windy!
So fun to see what you've been up to! And, your parents chalet is amazing...gorgeous view! So fun that the kids have been able to hang w/ cousins and grandparents all summer. I love seeing all the swiss traditions too...I need to get to these cheese/chocolate factories ASAP!
