Lake Moiry

Highlight • Lake

Lac de Moiry is one of several artificial lakes in this region, providing hydroelectric power to the region. It is distinguished by its turquoise waters of glacial origin, enveloped in an emblematic and typically Swiss decor. The lake is connected to a large number of Swiss mountain towns by a diverse range of trails, as well as being a great starting point for a day of cycling.

Lac des Autannes

Highlight • Lake

At the heart of the majestic Swiss Alps, in the canton of Valais, is Lake Autannes, an exceptional mountain lake that offers tranquility and an evocative atmosphere. It's hard to resist an extended break along the banks of this small lake, where you can fish. The view of the Moiry Glacier, the Weisshorn and the Dent Blanche is magnificent.

The path that runs alongside the lake has a slightly less steep gradient, inviting you to fully enjoy the panorama. As you move away from the lake in either direction, the terrain becomes steeper.

Col de Torrent

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Torrent is located at an altitude of 2,919 metres. The ascent from Les Haudères is quite steep for most of the way, but the trail isn't particularly technical. The descent from the opposite side is just as impressive, with breathtaking views and well-maintained trails that take you close to the beautiful lakes of Autannes and Moiry.

The panorama from the top is simply wonderful, with lakes and glaciers as a backdrop, giving you an extraordinary and immersive view of the surrounding valleys (Val d'Anniviers and Val d'Herens).

Lake Moiry

Highlight • Lake

The magical blue Lac de Moiry is beautifully embedded between the Garde de Bordon (3,310 meters), the Corne de Sorebois (2,896 meters) and the Sasseneire (3,254 meters) in the Valais Alps. The reservoir is used to generate energy and is just beautiful to look at.

Lac de Moiry

Highlight • Lake

The magical, enchantingly blue Lake Moiry is beautifully nestled between the Garde de Bordon, the Corne de Sorebois and the Sasseneire in the Valais Alps. This artificial lake is used for energy production and is simply beautiful. The dam, completed in 1958, is impressive, with a height of 148 meters overlooking the rear of the Vallon de Moiry. The mass of concrete initially impresses, but as soon as you get to the top of the wall, you discover a breathtaking panorama on both sides. There is a restaurant next to the dam and a mountain hut nearby.
