# Nendaz

Nendaz high above the Rhône Valley: the Valais holiday resort inspires with its huge “4 Vallées” winter sports area and its extensive hiking network, taking visitors from bisses to glaciers. Experience the “Japanese Garden”, the Cleuson reservoir and Mont Fort with a sensational Alpine backdrop.
Nendaz is situated in the southwest of Switzerland in the canton of Valais. Its location above the Rhône Valley, its year-round leisure activities and the views of the Bernese, Valais and Vaud Alps make Nendaz a popular excursion destination and holiday resort.
Your journey of discovery begins in Nendaz village centre. With the shingle-roofed wooden houses, the Tsâblo water mill and the Saint-Michel Chapel, it has retained the charm of a typical Valais village. At the edge of the village, you’ll find the start of the sculpture trail: marvel at the wood carvings of local mythical creatures and enjoy the view of the Rhône Valley and the mountains.
A winter sports arena that extends over four valleys: “4 Vallées” is the largest ski area in Switzerland. The altitude and snow-making facilities ensure perfect fun in the snow from November to April. The highest point is Mont Fort, 3,330 metres up: you can reach the summit with its glass viewing platform from Siviez. The long descents will inspire you, and the panoramic views are absolutely breathtaking, reaching from the Matterhorn to the Combin massif and as far as Mont Blanc.
