Winter at Champex Lac

Champex - Skiing at Champex LacThe ski season is now in full swing at Champex Lac. The snow is falling heavily and all the runs are now open. The new poma lift, which leaves from the existing station, will take you part of the way up the black run giving you a good fast run down. The new Proxi supermarket is being well used and stocks of both fresh and frozen provisions and local Swiss wines are good.
