Reflecting authentic expertise in both the culinary arts and design ⸻
Nature as reflection and inspiration
Nestled against the backdrop of the Imperial Crown, Espace Weisshorn aims to mirror the surrounding nature. We see ourselves as ambassadors of the region and its extraordinary features, its traditions and its flavours, its seasons and its culture.
Espace Weisshorn is not merely a restaurant, but rather a sensory experience in its own right, a dialogue between the past, present and future. Each and every element here has been selected with the utmost care to create a setting where modernity coexists in harmony with functionality, sustainability and longevity. The fruit of a joint project between the Sorebois collective and Remontées Mécaniques de Grimentz-Zinal SA (RMGZ), Espace Weisshorn is a collaborative accomplishment embodying expertise, passion and savoir-faire.
Intelligence, elegance, innovation
These are the three pillars guiding our approach, from the design to completion and beyond. Our vision is to thrive at the cutting edge of innovation while remaining true to a certain elegance and a profound sense of intelligence in everything that we do.
Ethical and cultural commitment
Espace Weisshorn is more than just a restaurant – it is a philosophical and ethical project. Everything here revolves around passion and expertise. We consider ourselves the keepers of mountain traditions and are delighted to invite you to join us on this journey to excellence and discovery.
Accessible for all persons with reduced mobility.
Espace Weisshorn serves natural spring water.
Utilisation of green energy and exemplary insulation.
We favour short supply chains.
Named “Espace Weisshorn” after the highest peak visible from the future dining room, the complex will include a restaurant with table service for around 180 guests, a snack bar to replace the former Bar-à-Pente and a panoramic terrace.
It will also be available to hire as an event location for seminars, banquets and weddings most of the year.
The new head chef, Vincent Lehner, will let his creativity and attention to detail shine through in each of his dishes, highlighting local produce. The four-season cuisine will continue to be showcased, in an “eco-responsible” approach where the menu will evolve according to seasonality.
The restaurant will favour short supply chains and local producers and artisans in order to showcase the region playing host to this sustainable and innovative project.
A 360° view
In line with our commitment to an extraordinary experience, our panoramic terrace offers you a unique place to escape and a treat for all the senses. The terrace can be reached directly via the Zinal-Sorebois-Espace Weisshorn gondola lift and offers an unbeatable view of the Imperial Crown. With soothing lounge music creating a chilled atmosphere and a selection of sophisticated cocktails, it is the ideal location for a moment of mindful and memorable relaxation. This haven of peace at an altitude of 2,700 m is sure to become your new favourite spot in the heart of the Val d’Anniviers.
Snack - Open in winter
Located at the arrival of the Grimentz and Zinal lifts in Sorebois and offering a spectacular view of the Imperial Crown, the Schuss Bar now features a fully redesigned concept centered around the Burger des Cimes, highlighting local products and simple, quick, and delicious cuisine.
Integrated into the new fan zone, where ski races are broadcast, it’s the perfect spot to enjoy a friendly break between runs.
Open from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm from December 13 to April 19, 2026, depending on weather conditions.
For your seminars, banquets and weddings
In addition to its culinary delights and charming setting, Espace Weisshorn is also an exceptional location for private functions. Our complex is able to host seminars, banquets and weddings over most of the year and can be tailored to suit your requirements so that every occasion sticks in your memory for all the right reasons. With a majestic view of the Imperial Crown, your guests will be immersed in an environment uniting natural grandeur and sophistication.

Their sense of welcome and attention to detail promise an unforgettable customer experience. In the kitchen, talented chef Vincent Lehner joins the team. His creativity and commitment to local and seasonal produce will be at the heart of his creations, offering a unique gastronomic experience at the Espace Weisshorn.
