Mandelon is een van de grootste en mooiste bergweiden van Wallis. Het uitzicht op de Hérémence-vallei en de omliggende bergtoppen is schitterend. Verschillende gemakkelijke wandelpaden verlaten de lodges om alpenweiden te ontdekken waar veel wilde bloemen groeien en waar marmotten, herten en gemzen leven. De lariksen zijn er koningen en hun schaduw biedt onderdak aan diverse picknickplaatsen. Bovendien kunt u dankzij de reservestatus van Mandelon in de herfst de herten zien brullen.
