Champex-Lac Lake

Highlight • Lake

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.

Col de Champex

Mountain Pass

45.6 km

Col de Champex Ascent from Les Valettes

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

An intense and very impressive climb. Over eleven kilometers, you have to overcome an elevation gain of around 850 meters. The roads are narrow and winding. There is little traffic. The splendor of colors in the larch forests is particularly impressive in autumn.

A not entirely easy but highly recommended alternative to the main road in the valley.
