Experience Leukerbad - relaxed living with the family
Varen – Wine enjoyment in the tranquil Valais wine village
Small winegrowers, sunny vineyards and relaxed moments of enjoyment
The small wine village of Varen lies above the Rhone Valley in Valais and is considered a true insider tip for wine lovers. Far from the crowds, here you can experience wine as it is lived in Valais: personal, down-to-earth and without any theatrics.
Varen is ideal for those seeking peace and quiet – and especially for families who want to combine wine enjoyment with a relaxing holiday.
Why Varen is a special place for wine
Varen's location is ideal for viticulture:
sunny south-facing slopes
dry climate
small plots instead of large farms
personal contacts with winegrowers
Here, people know each other – and you can feel that at every tasting. Instead of sales rhetoric, there are stories, tradition, and honest wines.
Wine style & character from Varen
The wines from Varen are typical of Valais, but often particularly original:
clear, characterful white wines

Focus on quality rather than quantity
Many winemakers produce only small quantities – ideal for those who like to discover new things and are not looking for what is available everywhere.

Varen & Families – Wine enjoyment without stress
Especially for families, Varen is an ideal place for wine excursions:

The actual enjoyment of the wine often doesn't take place directly on site, but later – quite deliberately in the evening in the holiday apartment.
