Yael Margelisch

Anecdote: „As a child, I used to play football in front of my parents‘ house on the Planards plateau. Several times I kicked the ball a bit hard and it started rolling down towards Verbier. I would then start running down through the swamps to catch it. A few times, I found myself in Les Esserts, with my balloon 😉 Otherwise the adventures to go to school by snowmobile in winter, especially in 1999 when we were stuck at home for a week!

Favourite place in the Val de Bagnes: Pierre Avoi, and the path that climbs to it via the crests of La Marlénaz.
