“Great weather, beautiful hike”
Valais region
The sun-drenched Valais lies entirely in the Alps and offers a total of 41 mountain peaks over 4000 meters high. With the Matterhorn, probably the most famous mountain in Switzerland is located in this part of the country. But not only Zermatt is a paradise for hikers, climbers, skiers and other outdoor lovers. Saas-Fee, Verbier and Crans Montana also attract a wide audience in summer and winter. Valais is home to the two nature parks Binntal and Pfyn-Finges, both of which await you with indescribable beauty, unique flora and fauna and even rare gems

In addition to vineyards and side valleys, Valais is home to 41 four-thousand-meter peaks, 18 of which belong to the Monte Rosa group alone. Therefore, the region also has the most and the largest glaciers to offer.
How many ski resorts does Valais have?
There are 44 ski resorts in Valais with a total of more than 2600 km of slopes. 576 ski lifts provide access to the ski regions. The largest ski resorts in the region are:

Among the most beautiful lakes are the Schwarzsee, the Riffelsee below the Gornergrat, the Stellisee with the reflection of the Matterhorn, the Bettmersee, the Champex-le-Lac and the reservoir Gibidum. Other popular lakes are the Blausee and the Daubensee on the Gemmi, which you can reach after a few minutes walk from the Gemmi mountain station.
