Highlight • Rest Area

Here is a simple but very practical campsite, a stone's throw from the lake, grocery stores and other Champex-Lac stores. The setting is magnificent.

Champex-Lac

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.
