The MOST BEAUTIFUL unknown Swiss VILLAGE: GRIMENTZ - Val D'Anniviers / SAINT-LUC Switzerland
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 10. 2019
- One of the most underrated places in Switzerland: Val d’Anniviers with its beautiful villages GRIMENTZ and SAINT-LUC! This is the place to go if you want to see pristine alpine villages with NO tourists. Yet, this place remains rather secret; the best reason why you should explore it as soon as possible. The fact that this place is not much visited yet may also be related to its location that is far away from any major city or airport. From Zurich itself it is about a 5-6 hours drive and from Geneva roughly 4-5 hours. Thus, a visit to GRIMENTZ and SAINT-LUC should only be planned if you stay for a couple of days in Switzerland.
The best season to visit Grimentz and Saint-Luc would be during May to early September. It is recommended to explore Grimentz during the morning due to its exposition to the sun. Saint-Luc, which is quite higher up and on the other side of the valley is best to visit during the afternoon. A great hotel to stay at is “Le Grand Chalet Favre”, where you can experience a very authentic alpine Swiss atmosphere. The food served at its restaurant is very delicious. I highly recommend to dine on the balcony to watch the sunset, as you may enjoy a fantastic view from there. Also good to know is the Chalet Favre provides you free admission to the train heading up to the lookout point. It is good to stay up there for about 1 hour, the view is very beautiful, but the place also quite quickly explored.
All in all, it was a fantastic experience to visit the Val d’Anniviers with its picturesque villages of Grimentz and Saint-Luc. A place, I definitely want to revisit, possibly in winter for the next time!

YES

@@lucianodenobrega5319 :) I made another top 10 villages video with many other places that you might like :)
I really like this place especially how quiet with few people. I love those wooden houses.
Thanks! Yeah, it's truly a gem of Switzerland. I highly recommend to go there :) Also Saint-Luc and Evolène are very much worth a trip!
i would absolutely consider traveling here! this is what i love about your channel, you take us to non-touristy places, never-heard-of-before towns. and that's exactly where i like to travel to...
Thank you!!I was planning to go to Lauterbrunnen,changed my mind after watching your video about the village! Thank you for your recommandations!! Want to walk through the beautiful nature!God bless😊🫶🏽
Hi. Grimentz is fantastic. Thanks for watching both of my videos. You will enjoy it im sure. Please combine it with St. Luc and Zinal😊
Your vblogs is the most beautiful I've seen about Switzerland! I love all of them. keep on blogingi. Enjoy your travel ❤
Hi Glen. Thank you so much for your sweet comment. Really happy reading this! Salamat :) I miss the Philippines. I went there 3x! Hopefully, in 2022, I can come over to produce a vlog :)
The village looks like a beautiful model & the most like a Dreamland village. Wonderful.
Yup, I agree. It's perfect!
For sure I will visit such picturesque village / City. Thanks a lot for your video, I had a good time watching it.
Hi Cyrille. Thank you for your nice comment. I hope this will inspire you to visit the beautiful Val d'Anniviers :)
I am planning a summer Swiss trip and so grateful to find this information. Yes, I will come experience this area! Thank you!
Je connais ce village par cœur, j'y vais chaque année depuis … 1994 ! ça fait 26 ans. MAGNIFIQUE
Super :) J'aimerais bien de retourner ici en hiver, en fait c'étais mon plan en 2020, mais maintenant avec cette situation... Étais-tu une fois allé au Lötschental? C'est similaire mais avec une culture très originaire :)
I'll make sure to check this place out when I am back to Switzerland. A beautiful village and cool video 🙌🙌
Semoga kamu bisa pergi ke sana - sekarang hanya sedikit orang tahu kampong ini - that's why you have to go sebelum semua akan tahu itu
very beautiful village n very beautifull description you gave in this video
Hi Muzaffra Irfan. THank you so much for your feedback! Very happy to hear that :) There is another similar village, which I took a video of, but that one has a very unique culture than only exists in that valley :) Maybe you might like it.
very very beautiful video
u r so cool , exploring what is hidden. . .

Hi Sachin. Thank you so much. Yes, on my channel, you will always get to know about new hidden gems :) This is one of my core missions; to show you the "off the main stream" spots

Hey Djemo, great video! I was thinking to go visit but now after seeing your videoI will definitely go! Thanks mate!
Hallo Franz. Das ist wirklich toll zu lesen. Ich hoffe, dass du einen tollen Aufenthalt in Grimentz haben wirst. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall!
Very nice video.🌷🌼🌸💫
Beautiful place.
Have a niceday!!!
Hi - Thank you so much for your compliment. Happy to hear you liked my video. Have a great day too! :)
I learned to ski in St. Luc and went off piste skiing in Grimentz. Fantastic area!
Never tried that out. I would love to try it some day :) I think it's very underrated!
Es ist immer gut, weniger beliebte Orte zu kennen. Vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihre Erfahrungen im Valais geteilt haben. Ich werde auf jeden Fall nach Saint Luc und Grimentz Ausschau halten, wenn wir das nächste Mal in der Gegend sind.
Awesome place, can’t wait to travel there. Thanks for the video!
Bob
Hi Bob. Happy to hear that! I hope you will be able to go there one day. Thanks a lot for the compliment :) ^^
Thank you for this excellent video. It reminds me fondly of my weeks spent in a small village in Wallis. Nature is so rich there in many ways. I made friends with some of the Village residents and was so impressed how they cared for their village and made it beautiful. Hard work and care seems to be a thing there. Nature is so rich in many ways. I would come back again and travel in your country, so easy sans car as well. It is so different to my home in Australia.
Hi. Thank you so much for your comment and nice feedback. I hope you can come back to Switzerland again. Grimentz, Evolène, Blatten are some other beautiful villages in the Canton of Wallis to check out :) Much love from Switzerland to Australia.
We love Valais! Massive thanks for this great video! Now we've got lots of great ideas and loads of more beautiful places to explore. Merci vielmol! Gruss aus Wangen SZ!
Hi Jheng. Thank you for your comment. Valais is amazing. I have put up quite a number of videos about the canton of Valais, maybe you might want to check them out, as I am sure some of the places might be interesting to you. Liebi Grüess usem Kanton SH

Hallo Swupel
Thank you very much! I am very happy to hear that you like this video! Always glad to receive your feedback and suggestions for new places :)
DjemoGraphic Aber jetzt echt das Dorf ist schon größer als die meisten oder?
@@swupel3622 Hmmm würde ich nicht sagen. Also Stein am Rhein zum Beispiel ist grösser. Mein Heimatdorf mit 800 Einwohnern ist ebenfalls grösser.
Grimentz is very beautiful and charming!! Picture perfect village!! Saint Luc is beautiful too!! I really like your hotel.The scenery is gorgeous! Love from Vermont
Hi Rebekah. Thank you very much! The next video will be again about Grimentz. I will publish it this Friday :) Please watch it. More footage to show, including Winter!
Very nice .thank you for ypur inform🥰
Hi Krisna. Most welcome. It was my pleasure to prepare this video about Grimentz.
the places are amazing . i am sure that every traveler would like to visit these beautiful and serene villages once in their life time.
Hi Ramesh. Thank you so much for your great feedback. I wish that you can visit these beautiful villages one day :)
Really enjoy trip with your presentation
Sawasdee krub! Kop kun krub for your nice feedback :) Happy to hear! Much love to beautiful Thailand. Went there 6x, when I used to live in Singapore
Beautiful, it reminds me of Gryon.
Thank you. I will take a look at Gryon :)
Great video, as always!!!
Thank you Daniel^^ You are welcome anytime in Switzerland :)
@@DjemoGraphic I am on my way...
Hermoso país. Pueblos hermosos.
Tuve la gran oportunidad de conocer Mainfeld y es mi deseo regresar algún día.
Saludos!!!
Definitely going there as soon as travel opens up
Cool. I hope you will have a great trip in here :)
Thank you Djemo.Yes,I would come to visit even more to relocate and live there.
Zdravo David. Thanks for your comment. That's nice to hear. Grimentz is beautiful and also well sheltered :D
Hi Djem this is Beals cris. This video of Grimantz is absolutely stunning. I'm dying to fly and set foot on those villages and in sait luc too. The mistake came out to be a very gorgeous place to be. Gush absolutely phenomenal. Will definitely go there one day sooner.
Hi Belas Cris. Thank you so much for your feedback. I hope one day you can go there; and Saint-Luc is very beautiful. Staying 1 night at the Chalet Favre is very worth it. The food there is just too good! You can go there even during Peak Season, it's still serene, sunset is late and its warm :D - a similar village, I have presented in one of my newer videos about BLATTEN LÖTSCHENTAL. There is some great cultural stuff to see; and the village is similar.
I have to visit Switzerland! Thanks for this video 🙏
You should :) I am sure you would enjoy in Grimentz :)
I’m doing research for a possible visit to Switzerland in 2022 and your videos are helping quite a lot. I just marked the Le Grand Chalet Favre on my Google Map because you really sold the positives of Saint Luc. Thank you! I’d definitely consider stops in both Saint Luc and Grimentz.
So beautiful 💕
Beautiful place !
Yup, very! I made also a video of how it looks during winter :)
Very good video. I love this village! It's really picturesque, serene, simply with the beautiful view of Alpine. The wooden houses always amaze me. Once I stayed in switzerland chalet & I got the fairy tale feeling:)
As I traveled alone, I always took train/bus. Sadly I didn't have any experience by renting/driving a car to explore more deeper in Switzerland...
Thank you Dina. Yup, the village is really quite a challenge to reach by public transport. But as it is Switzerland there is public transportation even to the last lost corner :)
Great video, I have skied Grimentz in winter, never been there in the summer must go sometime. Perth Scotland
Hi Denis. That's nice! I am going there in 2 weeks from now. I have only been in Summer to Grimentz. I can't wait to visit it in winter :) Much love to Scotland :)
The more I watch your videos the more I'm falling in love with Switzerland...
J'aime la Suisse
Awww. Thank you so much Faiz! :) ^^ You are the Faiz from Melaka? Is it?
No sir, I'm Faiz from Sothern India
I will put these place in my travel bucket list. 😎
:) Happy to hear that :) I'll post more similar videos like this in the next months
Wonderful video, very interesting. I really want to visit this valley in my next holidays in Switzerland 🇨🇭
Hi Ulrike. Yes, please do! it's a fantastic place!
Every night I watch your videos. They are so Phantastic and interesting . In two weeks I will be in Switzerland 🇨🇭 again, in the Kanton of Wallis.
Hi, Dear Director of DjemoGraphic, really really the best and beautiful village that I have ever seen in my life, Thank God for the creation of all of this beauty and Thank you for making the movie and introduce this village.
Hi Younes. Thank you for your nice feedback. Yeah, Grimentz is very very beautiful. I will soon post more videos about other beautiful villages in Switzerland. So there is quite something for you to look forward to :)
@@DjemoGraphic I wait for other your video Dear sir.
We actually have booked a week in the Val d'Anniviers after seeing your video a few months ago. I am just watching it again today to research a little more. We are going in July. We are staying in Vissoie because of the price and room fit our needs. Such great videos! Keep it up!
Hi Alan. Wow! Thank you so much! You can also visit Chandolin and Zinal. It's nice!
Yes..i love it
Happy :) ^^
Singapore is on my bucket list ! Thank you for the tips .
Welcome!
Beautiful 😍😍😍😍
Jom pergi di 2020 :D
You do an excellent job of uncovering small and beautiful villages that we may not have heard of before like Grimenyz and SaintvLuc. What would be helpful is knowing hoe far in km from places we are likely yo know - such as 100km south east of Geneva, or about 30 min north of Lugano, etc. Grimentz had some intriguing alleys but Sainy Luc, and the beautiful hotel, Le Chalet Favre and the balcony restaurant where you % your friend had breakfas, was glorious! I did enjoy the alpine architecture, which always reminds me of the German sector of Switzerland. T, too, enjoy the places with fewer tourists.
Awesome
Thank you!
I always new that Swiss villages are breath taking, I visited in 1983 Megève in France and walked to a village in Switzerland. Also I went to Geneva, I was great days.
Hi Cyrille. That's great to read. I hope that was a great hike you had. Sadly, believe it or not, I have never visited Geneva except for Sports competition :D
I love these kinds of reviews. I'll be traveling in Switzerland in a couple of months and really want to be in places like this, with only some short stays in bigger cities. Thank you for the nice videos, very helpful. :)
Hi Paul. Thanks a lot for watching this video :) Happy to read that you enjoyed it. I can recommend you my Top 10 Cities video :)
Great suggestion! I prefer the smaller villages and towns when I travel. As soon as the world opens up again I have Switzerland on my list. Thanks for showing some of the lesser known areas. Subscribed.
Hi Patrick. Thank you so much for your feedback on my video! Furthermore, thank you for subscribing to my channel; welcome to DjemoGraphic. I am happy to have you as a new member in the community :)
@@DjemoGraphic thanks for taking the time to reply. I watch a lot of travel videos, but so many of them show more of their own faces instead of the actual location! I like your presentation style. Ich wünsche Ihnen Gesundheit im neuen Jahr
Awesome scenery!
Thank you Ricky!
@@DjemoGraphic Please do Philippines, too!
nice video❤️
I love that its power comes from the water....and that the water is good to drink..😇
Amazing😍
Hii. Thanks a lot :)
Very beautiful😍. I am very appreciated,
Thank you Yulena :)
Those native houses, the mountains, the serenity, reminds me soOo much of the picturesque Japanese alps in Nagano!
Hi Stacey. Interesting comparison. I have never been to Nagano but to other cities of Japan. I loved Japan's originality a lot too; but I need to explore Nagano and also Hokkaido :) I hope that your wish comes true and you can come here and spend a great holiday in Switzerland :)
Gorgeous 💚
Thank you!
Nice villages i'd love to visit.
Yes, my husband and I will be visiting both villages in July 2024! Thank you for this illuminating video!

Swiss fairy tale villages 😍 I have never been there, but after seeing your amazing video, they are definitely on my list. 😀
Hi. Grimentz is very alluring. You really should go there! If you want, when you come to Switzerland we can do one video together, like collab ;) Those two guys from my videos Stäuber and Corippo are Slovenians btw :)
DjemoGraphic DjemoGraphic I actually live in Luzern. 😀 Really? I wasn’t aware. How cool! Collaboration would be very interesting idea. Let’s stay in touch. 😀 I’m already subscribed to your channel & Instagram.

Thank you for sharing this greatfull video about Grimentz..

Warm regards from Bern from a native Sumatra woman 😉
Hi Tenny. That's so nice to hear from you. Interesting that you are from Sumatra; it's one of my favorite regions in Asia :) Kamu bisa cakap bahasa Indonesia?

I was born in Bengkulu, but my parents were from palembang. So I am a 100% sumatran👍😊
Yesss, tentu saya bisa berbahasa indonesia 🇮🇩
Saya tinggal di Bern, ayooo main ke tempat saya kalau kamu ada waktu👌🇮🇩
I am Canadian and would love to visit Switzerland one of these days particularly Grimentz. Nice video. Thank you!
Hi Jennifer. Grimentz is THE HIDDEN GEM! You should really go there. Fantastic place. I want to go there again this winter :)
Thank you for the heads up but I want to see for myself. I have always been fascinated by the beautiful and scenic small villages and would love to see hoq tourism
Sorry, inadvertently hit the wrong button.
I’d love to see how tourism has taken its toll on the natural beauty of small villages like Grimentz. I still would want to visit :D
@@davidharris3264 Tourism trap? I barely saw any tourists and those who were visiting were Swiss. My visit was in July 2019, i.e. peak season, where Lauterbrunnen and Interlaken have loads of visitors. Some people actually even complained that Grimentz is "too empty"
@@jennifersenia4590 I am sure you will enjoy a lot overthere😊😊😊
excellent
Hi Amir. Thank you so much for your feedback!
I wanted to visit that kind of place may favorite place that I ever had hopefully not only in may dream..
Yes, quite definitely!
Hi Venkat. That'ts great to hear. Thank you!
Ha Ha no more unknown village! Thank you!
Thank you. Will visit after COVID 19.
Hi Anna. Hopefully you can. It's really a great place! :)
Btw, your name sounds Armenian. Do you have armenian roots?
Yes! Bien Sur
Where is that little train you took up the mountain at the end? We really liked this video and we are thinking of visiting this area now.
Awesome place. Continue this good work. I would suggest do share the approximate cost also.
Hi Uvri. Thanks a lot for your nice feedback! Good suggestion. For Grimentz usually the cost are as they are typical for Switzerland: Hotels cost at least 100.- CHF, parking lots 1.- CHF per hour. Lunch 15 - 30 CHF.
Thank you:)) I can go it soon
I hope so too. Much love from Switzerland to South Korea, one day, I will go there :)
Yes I really would like to come
Hi Dennis. That's great to read! I am sure you will like Grimentz!
Yes, yes, most definitely!
Great to hear that you agree :) ^^
It is indeed beautiful. I had intended to travel to Europe and visit Switzerland too last year, but alas it was not to be with Covid. Hopefully next time.
Hi. I hope you will be more lucky upon Summer this year. Hopefully, you will spend a great time in Switzerland :)
Tres coli sviss 💕👍👍👍
Oui, le village de Grimentz c'est la Suisse qu'on connaît des albums de photo :)
most beatiful
Right?
If you’re in shape, you should hike up to the meidpass or the summit of the Touno, from which you’ll have a breathtaking view from the mont blanc in the west to the bietschorn in the east, including all the high summits in the southern alps
Hi. That's a great recommendation! Thank you so much :)
Wow this is beautiful. Would you recommend a visit in October? Will much be open and good weather.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove ittttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Gabriela!
In the first opportunity, I get the money, and after decrease pandemic Cornavirus I come to visit this beautiful little paradise.
I hope you will be able to visit Switzerland and moreover have a fantastic holiday and experience in here :)
it would help a lot if you gave some idea of the costs. For example how much can a room cost during different seasons. Are you expected to pay through the nose at the restaurants .a quick camera shot of the menu would be helpful
Hi Edmung. These are great suggestions! Thank you :)
Thanks for this wonderful video. D villages in Swiss Alps r undoubtedly charming surrounded by breathtaking gorgeous landscapes. Terima Kasih.
I am from Siders so I loooove St Luc , my favorite because I spent summers there, Grimentz is very beautiful too but St Luc….😛
Great video and perspective. I agree 100% but I’m hoping no one is watching some it will remain pristine and not over run by tourists.
Hi Steve. Thanks a lot. Don't worry: Most people will not go to Grimentz. The majority of my followers who come to Switzerland watch my videos but end up going to the biggest hotspots. However, I am very happy that a sizeable fraction of my followers has been taking these tips into account :)
congrats on 8k sub
how much would Europe 20 days budget
including Switzerland 7 days trip
Hi. Thank you! Europe is quite diverse in terms of prices and then there are the touristy centers that are more expensive than the rest e.g. London, Vienna, Zürich, Paris vs country side.
For Switzerland: Regular hotels or BnB's can cost between 70-150 CHF a night. There are guest houses that cost 40 CHF a night (e.g. Guest House Schäfler). Regular lunch not in touristy centers or cities costs about 15-20 CHF including beverage. If vegetarian, then it's usually cheaper. Renting a car costs 70-80 CHF a day. Train pass I am now sure, can be maybe 60 CHF a day for tourists.
Your videos are great🙏
Grow up in germany mostly and swiss,austria
Dont miss 52% tax or snow i prefer beaches..
Cheers from bali🌴🌞🌴
Hi. Thank you. Yes, Switzerland is nice... and we have low taxes here too :)
@@DjemoGraphic a ya sorry i forgot..i think in zuerich just 8%..been living n working 1990 till 92 lake of constance swiss side
Yes
Wow 😯😯😯,
How many countries you have visited bro?
39. Almost all of these 39 are in Europe or East Asia (India and eastern)
Once the pandemic is over, I would love to go there.
Yes i would
:) Great! I hope you will have a great time in Grimentz!
I would definitely go to these villages. Are there cows up there in the summer?
Waaa thanks nice video me that's my dream to visit Switzerland let me pray to God one day I will came there or God can give me Switzerland man to marry him inshallah
