Quite a nice jaunt, along what is basically a straight line, with branches off up valleys, all courtesy of Alpentourer magazine 4/2021.

if you fancy visiting this area then my friends Bruce and Judith have some apartments in Morgins on the Swiss/France border, just a few km west of Monthey on the map above.

Bruce is a fellow biker.

A good tip from Wessie.

Morgins to Martigny, is only 35 minutes, straight down the motorway.
 
The run up that valley is really torturous, or was last time I did it (2010) but if I had to go that way again then it would be great to run up and down some of those dead end valleys as I expect tehre are some real hidden gems, the fact the roads never make it over the top of the mountains hints that they might be quite spectacular.
 
I also found this, which is broadly similar but has the possible advantage of being circular.
