All the credits grimgrim! This picture has been haunting my dreams for months, I'm so glad it's finally found!
I'm usually able to treat these challenges as fun little pass times, but somehow I just couldn't let this one go. Turns out it's been calling out to me haha.
Very well done, it's also fun to see, that there is a village near Martigny which is called "Coeur", haha.
grimgrim I think you're spot on! I looked up those coordinates on Bing Maps satellite view and I saw the exact same row of white rocks right there.

So I'm just going to officially submit this location:
Plan Bocon, Martigny-Combe, Switzerland.
46.107829, 7.041515
Street View from around that area but a bit more downhill, outline of the mountains is a match:

the mountain is definitely the one (Le Catogne) spotted by coeurdelion24, but the side is the opposite. this pic is taken from north towards sout, so POSSIBLY, it's been taken from the dent du salantin rangeas it's fairly high and rich in drivable paths. in general i'd look for a spot on the mountains west from martigny up till collonges. my wild guess would be here: 46.107503, 7.041311
I've been trying to look for this place, with no luck. I put it into Google Image search, all I've found are a couple of facebook groups, all about the French speaking part of Switzerland, but i can't find the origin of the picture from Facebook.
I've looked through tons of mountain ranges in the Swiss Alps, I think this place near Orsières looks kinda like the picture in question? But I really can't find anything that looks exactly the same.
I'll just leave the Google Street View here, hope it helps anyone at all on their search for this place:
