The route leaves Aigle via the vineyard to reach Gryonne and later the Rhone, which it crosses at Massongex, the old capital of Celtic Valais. At St-Maurice, pilgrims have covered exactly half the distance from Canterbury to Rome.
Just after St. Maurice you reach Vérolliez, where a small chapel commemorates the martyrdom of Saint Maurice and his companions. On the way to the Rhone Valley, you come across the famous Pissevache waterfall and the 200 metre-deep Trient Gorge.
