What adventures will you choose to have today?
Summer
Here, life is still closely linked to agriculture, while at the same time developing a new local and participative economy. The Palp Festival — an event that brings together contemporary music, art and tradition — has made its home in Bruson, helping to maintain true village life. Proof if it were needed, is that Bruson, not far from the end of the Bisse des Ravines hiking trail, is where Eddy Baillifard — Monsieur Raclette himself — welcomes his customers and serves them cheese and local produce. Finally, the many signposted footpaths and enduro trails that criss-cross the surrounding area will delight hiking enthusiasts and thrill seekers.
WINTER
Snow sports combined with local traditions: the promise of the Val de Bagnes, a hidden corner of paradise. Little wooden chalets, roofs covered with thick snow. That’s the background: a typical mountain village, quietly authentic. Yet this fairytale image is far from being all that Bruson has to offer its visitors. With 26 kilometres of ski runs, forests of well-spaced trees ideal for freeriding and ski touring, this resort casts a spell over every snow sports lover. Every year, it hosts a qualifier for the Freeride World Tour, attracting over 250 skiers and snowboarders intent on taking to the vertiginous slopes of the region. Moreover, the Bruson-Verbier cable car puts the 4Vallées skiing area within easy reach. Best of all, the village is famed for its local specialities and its raclette. Just rewards after a hard day’s sport!
