Ice rink on Lake Champex
Put on your skates and let yourself be charmed by this exceptional setting!
When conditions are favourable, the frozen lake at Champex is transformed into a vast ice rink measuring approximately 70 metres wide by 150 metres long, offering the freedom to skate while admiring this unique landscape, nicknamed ‘Little Canada’.
Thanks to our bus service departing from Orsières, you can arrive directly opposite the ice rink and enjoy a convenient and peaceful outing with ease.
