Moiry Barrage

WELCOME TO THE VAL DE MOIRY

The Moiry dam and its surroundings are only accessible in summer, when weather conditions allow the road to be opened.

However, once the snow has melted and the weather is fine, it's possible to get there by bike or on foot via the road linking the village of Grimentz to the dam. As this road is very busy throughout the summer season, we recommend that you take the postal bus to get there, so that you can pedal with greater peace of mind as soon as you arrive.


And once you've reached the summit at 2500 metres, you'll find

The arrival point of the Via Ferrata, the dam restaurant, and you'll discover the Val de Moiry with its breathtaking views of the lake, its wild scenery and, further upstream, its glistening glacier, the starting point of several hikes for well-trained sportsmen and women.

Discover the restaurant

Moiry via ferrata

Can be used from mid-June to the end of October, depending on weather conditions.

FROM GRIMENTZ TO ZINAL

The special feature of this destination is that it brings together two mountain sides, one by its village and the other by a summit, with the finish close to the Corne de Sorebois (2441m).

Each side has direct access via gondolas that take you either to the Bendolla or Sorebois sectors.

We look forward to welcoming you to both slopes, thanks to the Grimentz / Zinal lifts.
