Use the level on the residence address
Les Collons 1800, 1850 and 1900, Thyon 2000 and Les Masses are not a shared entrance. Confirm level, road access and first lift before selecting equipment. A bus to an upper stop can be the wrong choice for a residence lower down, especially when carrying several bags.
A broad and a sector-specific catalogue label may refer to different practical arrival points.
How the arrival fits your chosen base
Use Sion rail interchange and the dated Theytaz public-bus itinerary to Les Collons or Thyon 2000.

Choose collection around the first ski day
Check the residence’s level and the shop address before collection.
Put the accommodation entrance, lesson meeting point and intended collection shop on one map before paying. A lower equipment price in another village can introduce a special fitting or return journey. Ask the chosen shop about collection hours and return conditions; this guide does not promise those commercial details.
Before committing to transport
A lift name does not prove road access to the same entrance or lift operation at arrival.
Use a date-specific operator planner for the complete outward and return trips. A published ride time does not include baggage collection, waiting, road delays or the last walk to the building. If the last usable service is too early, compare an organised transfer or an overnight near the gateway before buying a non-refundable connection.
