Nax, Skybalcony

The expression "Skybalcony" is not only
a poetic slogan. The village has extended itself on
a real balcony from where you can enjoy a breathtaking
view of the Rhone Valley and the Bernese Alps.

Almost entirely built in a natural depression kept
away from the wind, visitors are surprised by a vaste
and beautiful plateau enriched with hillocks from
the glacial epoch. It's natural setting impresses
travelers as well.
Nax is opening up to tourism and try to preserve its
character as traditional village of the Valais. Its
houses, barns or lofts are still made of wood, in
a pure age-old way. Few houses from XVIth century
B.C. still witness the local history.
Nax, 1300 m., is located in the
heart of Valais, between Val d'Anniviers and Val d'Hérens,
at a few steps from the Vallon de Réchy which
is a nature protected area.
A wide range of sports activities is offered to all,
including the most demanding guests. Nax is a real
paradise for nature lovers and hikers.
