A jagged limestone tower rising above Verbier with 360° views over the Rhône Valley, the Combins, and even Mont Blanc on a clear day. Pierre à Voir is like a natural watchtower — raw, exposed, and incredibly photogenic.

The trail up passes alpine meadows and dramatic cliffs before you reach the narrow ridge leading to the tower. It’s a lesser-known spot, which makes the summit feel even more wild.

🥾 Distance: ~10 km round trip

⏱ Duration: ~4 hours

⬆️ Elevation gain: ~900 m

💪 Difficulty: Moderate (short technical ridge at the end)

📷 Photo Tip: Go in late afternoon for dramatic light on the rock face — or sunrise if you want solitude.
