Champéry

Champéry is a village at 1050 m above sea level in the French-speaking Valais. It is located in the middle of the huge ski resort Portes du Soleil. The village is one of the oldest tourist resorts in Switzerland. It has a variety of restaurants, bars and stores in the middle of the mountains. Worth seeing is a bell foundry in the village, which is still in operation today. A 40 m high limestone cliff with various climbing routes provides sporting variety. In addition, you will find a bike park with 300 km of trails, an indoor ice rink, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool and a horse center. (Photo: Switzerland Tourism, Christof Sonderegger)
