The enormous Glacier 3000 ski area is also nearby, offering more than 125km of pistes and snow-parks at an altitude of up to 3000m, even in the summer.
Adventuring aside, guided tours of the Bex Salt Works offer an intriguing insight into the area’s rich history, whilst the Aigle Viticultural Museum is a wonderful place to discover the region’s Alpine wines.
