LOCATION

Residence Bellevue is located in Veysonnaz, a small, idyllic mountain village, in the canton of Valais - the sunniest region of Switzerland. The delightfully traditional and family-orientated resort is only 1 hour 45 minutes from Geneva and 15 minutes from Sion, the capital of Valais. Situated at the crossroads of several valleys, the village is blessed with exceptional panoramic views of the Swiss Alps and Rhone Valley. Veysonnaz, set at an altitude of 1 300 m, is one of the four links (together with Verbier, Nendaz and Thyon 2000) of the 5-star classified Four Valleys ski area, the largest in Switzerland with 400 km of slopes and more than 100 ski lifts. Veysonnaz itself has instaled a brand new cable car station that has become operational in December 2005.

 VALAIS REGION

The canton of Valais extends from the Furka Pass in the east to Lake Geneva in the west. The Rhone Valley is surrounded by majestic peaks. Conches Valley in Higher Valais has many small villages that have preserved their character, built into the steep slopes. In winter it is a cross-country skiing paradise. In Central Valais the valleys lead to summer and winter resorts known all over the world, such as Zermatt (located at the foot of the Matterhorn) and Saas Fee. Lower Valais, the French-speaking part of the canton, is characterised by plains of orchards and vineyards. The capital of Valais and oldest town in Switzerland, Sion, as well as the fashionable resorts of Crans-Montana and Verbier (the ski area to which Veysonnaz is linked), is found here.
