Sun & views, a unique natural environment

The purest air in Switzerland, the ever-present sunshine and exceptional views create an ideal atmosphere for enjoying the natural wealth that Crans-Montana has to offer. Here, the charms of nature are revealed in all their aspects: different kinds of forests, lots of lakes, the 3,000 metre Plaine Morte glacier, lush green mountain pastures and magnificent vineyards. The possibilities for walks are endless…along a ‘bisse’ stream, around lakes or right into the heart of the mountains. As the seasons change, the scenery evolves with nature and is adorned with new colours, different light, enchanting fragrances and new sounds, creating a very special atmosphere. Whatever the time of year, nature at its best welcomes visitors to Crans-Montana.
