To reach the spectacular views worthy of postcards, you have to prepare yourself for the 1,500 metres ascent of Mont Arpille from Martigny. To appreciate the climb, why not make a stopover at Bâtiaz Castle, discover the bread ovens in the picturesque hamlets of Ravoire and, above all, take the time to admire the Rhône valley during the climb.
