Sport & Aventure
The tunnels of la Grande Dixence
La Grande Dixence is the highest dam in Europe – you can drive to the foot from which a télécabine takes you up to the top of the wall. From here, choose between walking through dynamited tunnels in the mountains to reach the amazing nature paths around the dam itself, or book a guided tour within the wall – 300 metres thick, and 300 metres high!
Go Surfing!
Yes, in the middle of the Swiss Alps you can actually go surfing! Alaïa Bay offers you an incredible experience whether a confirmed surfer or a total novice – you can even choose your wave… and all with the amazing backdrop of the Valaisan peaks and (usually) blue skies.
