Should I wear hiking boots or sports shoes?

I'm going hiking in the Alps soon. I normally wear hiking boots but they are a bit heavy to carry while travelling, flying etc. Should I wear sports shoes instead? I've never worn them before while hiking.

I will be mostly walking on trails but occasionally doing a bit of scrambling over rocks to reach a summit or whatever--no ropes and crampon stuff lol

Any advice welcome.
