Sion (VS)

Put the fun in your summer with the BS12 line!

Set up during the most recent timetable changes, the Sion-Aproz route connects Sion station with the village of Aproz, departing twice every hour. The bus stops in a number of areas that offer fun activities for all the family: the “Blancherie” outdoor pool; RealFly – the first indoor skydiving simulator in Switzerland; Alaïa Bay – the brand new surfing paradise; Adventure Park – the largest treetop adventure park in the Valais region, and last but not least, the “Domaine des Iles” park and the many open-air activities it has to offer: tennis, minigolf, a tourist train, a play area, paddleboarding, water sports and so on. We also have to mention the park’s beautiful green spaces, which are perfect for picnics and getting some fresh air by the water.

The BS12 route departs from near the station, at the beginning of Rue des Champs-de-Tabac, and can get you to the “Domaine des Iles” park in 10 minutes. From Monday to Saturday, it departs twice every hour between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m., and departs six times on a Sunday.

The full timetable, information on fees and route maps are available in the Sion bus timetable, which you can download from the “Documents” tab.
