Terrific trail: the fabulous Wildstrubel (Image: FranckOddoux) The action never stops in Crans-Montana , the spectacular Swiss resort in the Valais region of the Alps that has a feast of sports and events for visitors as summer moves into autumn. A magnet for road and mountain cyclists, golfers and runners, the chic town, part of the Best of the Alps group ( bestofthealps.com ), is also renowned for its hiking and adventure activities.

Just a two-hour gloriously scenic train ride from Geneva Airport, for everyone there are fine local wines and a climate at 1500 metres that’s a pleasurable mix of warm days and cool nights.
