Top Attractions in Sitten
💡 Print a walking map from the tourist office at Place de la Planta (free). Stop at the Bouchon de la Tour for a glass of local Fendant under the arcades—cheap and authentic. No entry fees anywhere on the route.
💡 The château itself is a museum with a fee; skip it and enjoy the park grass for free. There's a good view of Valère from the eastern corner. Quietest on weekday mornings.
