  • Located in the Haut Val de Bagnes nature reserve, built between 1951 and 1958, the imposing 250m-high concrete structure is the highest vaulted dam in Europe.

  • To find out more about its history, take the Dam Trail. It takes you to the top of the dam via an old 392-metre long gallery and traces the construction of the building. Once you reach the top of the dam, a splendid view of Lake Mauvoisin and the breathtaking waterfalls awaits you.
