Tips

Hiking

A calm and tranquil lake, located in the Verbier ski resort. During the winter months, the Lac des Vaux region hosts off-piste skiers, and during the summer, it is popular with hikers, cyclists, and runners, as well as the diversity of flora and fauna that the summer in the Alps offers. For those brave enough or a little crazy, you can take a dip to escape the summer heat, I'm sure it's much better once you're in...

Mountain biking

A beautiful and peaceful mountain lake, accessible on foot and by bike in summer, and by ski in winter. The lake makes a great destination or distraction for a day of hiking, as the trails leading to it span the entire mountain or valley below, and there is something for everyone. The lake also offers the opportunity for those who want to escape the summer heat to take a quick swim, if you're feeling brave enough!
