Summer guests in Les Collons can expect a wide range of activities. Enjoy the fresh alpine air and enjoy the huge hiking area with very well marked hiking tours. There are also many mountain bike routes. Two descents begin at the top station of the Etherolla chair lift, connecting up in Thyon 2000 with a third route taking bikers from Thyon to Les Collons or Veysonnaz. Like in many places in the Valais, in Les Collons you can walk with no great differences in altitude along the 'Suonen' (historic irrigation channels).
For a change, you can also go riding, climbing, paragliding or bowling. Also worth a visit are Valais’ capital Sion for a shopping trip or a gourmet meal out and the underground lake near St-Léonard (situated between Sion and Sierre). Also you can play golf in Sion (~17 kilometers from the chalet) or you can visit Montreaux Riviera or Beach, which is just one hours drive. And don't miss the Grande Dixence dam in the Val d'Hérémence – at 285 metres the highest dam in the world. Guided tours inside the dam wall.
