    Nature lovers call this area "Little Canada": the picturesque village lies on a wonderful mountain lake. Between Le Châtelet and Le Catogne there is a unique, intact plateau.

    Champex is not only eponymous for the "Col de Champex" Pass, but also offers great "Aprez Ride" activities, such as a visit to the alpine flower garden or a visit to old underground Swiss fortifications.

    Champex-Lac is a beautiful alpine village nestled in a splendid setting between lake and mountains. It's a delightful place to stroll through its narrow streets and admire its many traditional wooden chalets. There's plenty to eat and restock on food.
