Uvrier

Uvrier is a rural settlement in the Rhone Valley that stretches along the valley floor and is surrounded by vineyards and mountains. The place connects to a shopping center situated along the main transportation route between Sion and Sierre.

This area has been a wine region for centuries, shaped by the alpine terrain and climate of the Rhone Valley. In the 1970s a modern shopping center was built here, transforming the region into a commercial and residential destination.

Winemaking has shaped the identity of this place for generations, with traditional cultivation methods still visible in the vine-covered slopes. The landscape itself tells this agricultural story through its distinctive terraced hillsides and mature vineyards.

The place sits directly on the main road between Sion and Sierre and has plenty of parking available at the shopping center. If you want to explore on foot, you will find paved paths that lead through the vineyards and down into the valley.

The shopping center was completely redesigned and now offers an unexpected mix of modern retail and rural surroundings. This blend of shopping and direct proximity to vineyards is unusual for this region.
