Rent a Car in Sierre Center

Rent a car in Sierre and explore Valais's sunniest city with the Rhône Valley and alpine side valleys as your playground. Sierre is called Switzerland's sun city with over 300 days of sunshine per year and sits 20 km east of Sion, with direct access to motorway A9 towards the Zermatt region and Italy's Aosta Valley. A rental car opens up the otherwise hard-to-reach side valleys.

Sierre is a bilingual city with 16,000 residents where French and German meet – a unique cultural crossroads in Valais. The city is known for wine production, particularly Pinot Noir and Humagne, and serves as the gateway to Val d'Anniviers with its medieval village summers and glaciers. Drive up Val d'Anniviers (20 km south) to the villages of Grimentz and Zinal for one of the Alps' best-preserved traditional cultural landscapes.

Take motorway A9 westbound to Sion (20 km) to visit the two medieval castles Valère and Tourbillon that tower over the city. Drive east towards Leuk (15 km) and take the cable car up to Leukerbad – the Alps' largest thermal resort. How far is it from Sierre to Zermatt by car?
