Announcement Announcement 26 March 2021 4 Vallées open to skiers until 18 April The resorts of Verbier, Nendaz, Veysonnaz, Thyon, La Tzoumaz and Bruson are preparing to close a less than normal winter season that has been significantly impacted in terms of visitor numbers. Nevertheless, while complying with strict safety measures, the operators of Switzerland’s largest ski area were thrilled to have had the opportunity to host internationally renowned sporting events such as the ski cross and snowboard cross world cup finals in Veysonnaz, Nendaz Freeride, the final of the Freeride World Tour Xtreme Verbier, and the Telemark World Cup finals in Thyon. At the end of March, 4 Vallées is still offering customers outstanding snow conditions, which can be enjoyed until mid-April. More precisely, the Printse sector (Nendaz-Veysonnaz-Thyon) will close as planned at the end of the Easter holidays on 11 April. The sectors of Verbier and La Tzoumaz, as well as the 4 Vallées connections and the Mont-Fort sector, will close their doors on Sunday, 18 April. This closure, initially scheduled for 25 April, has been brought forward slightly due to the exceptional circumstances we are currently experiencing. 4 Vallées will, however, continue to operate services from Verbier for participants in the Haute Route between 18 and 25 April. Despite these uncertain times, 4 Vallées are pleased and satisfied to have kept the ski area open throughout the season, starting as early as the end of October. Thanks to everyone’s efforts and their involvement in complying with all of the measures in place, the season as a whole has been a success. 4 Vallées would like to take the opportunity to thank their visitors for their loyalty throughout the season by giving them the chance to try out the world’s highest zip line at Mont-Fort (3,330 metres in altitude) for half price during the season’s closing week (descents can be booked online at mont4zipline.ch). Finally, the ski lift operators from the different resorts are looking forward to seeing customers again in the summer and next season, which will exceptionally end on Sunday, 1 May 2022 (due to the Patrouille des Glaciers).

    Nendaz au moyen âge. (Communication à l'assemblée de la S. H. V. R., tenue à Nendaz, le 24 mai ig3i.) I. Aperçu général. Il en est de l'histoire de Nendaz comme de celle de la plupart des vallées latérales du Valais. Nos origines se perdent dans une nuit profonde. Touchant notre préhistoire, tout ce que l'on peut savoir, c'est qu'on a trouvé dans la région d'Aproz un tombeau à compar­ timents, de l'âge du bronze. Aucun autre monument n'éclaire notre passé antérieurement à l'ère chrétienne. A l'époque romaine, on peut admettre que les Sédu- niens et les Véragres se coudoyaient au pied de nos coteaux, dans la région de Baar et d'Aproz, et que ce sont là nos deux localités qui furent tout naturelle­ ment, de par leur situation même, habitées en premier lieu. La précieuse carte de Gabriel Walser, de 1768, indique en effet qu'il y avait là autrefois des Véragres. (Hic olim Veragri). Nendaz était essentiellement une terre de forêts qui fut, peu à peu et péniblement rendue à la culture, de vastes forêts à peu près vierges encore au VIe siècle, dans lesquelles gîtaient cerfs, chevreuils, ours, san­ gliers, tout le gibier à plume et à poil de l'époque. La colonisation dut se faire avec peine. Encore au XVIe siècle, dans la carte des sept dizains, d'après la Cosmo­ graphie de Sébastien Müller, alors qu'on y relève un grand nombre de localités du Valais, toute la région de Nendaz n'y est représentée que par un groupe de sapins, sans plus.

  • Swiss Alps Destination Guide
    Swiss Alps Destination Guide Overview of Swiss Alps The Alps contain some of Switzerland's most dramatic landscapes, in a country already well endowed with spectacular scenery and fabulous alpine vistas. Situated at the heart of the Alps, Switzerland shares the mountain range with France, Italy and Austria, and provides winter and summer time enjoyment for skiers, snowboarders, walkers and climbers. Switzerland has the distinction of being home to the first ever ski resort, and since then, over 200 first-class resorts have attracted thousands of Swiss and international downhill and cross-country skiers and snowboarders. The tradition of skiing goes back two centuries. Today, with more than 1,700 mountain railways and ski lifts, renowned ski schools and instructors, the best ski equipment in the world, and outstanding slopes and facilities catering for all levels of ability, it fully deserves its moniker of 'Europe's winter playground'. Key Facts Language: The four official languages are Swiss German, French, Italian and Romansch. Most people know at least three languages, including English. Passport/Visa: The borderless region known as the Schengen area includes the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and as of December 2008, Switzerland. All these countries issue a standard Schengen visa that has a multiple entry option that allows the holder to travel freely within the borders of all. It is highly recommended that travellers' passports have at least six months' validity remaining after the intended date of departure from their travel destination.
