There are lots of activities and whether it is mountain biking or walking in the summer or skiing in the winter the local tourist information website provides an up-to-date list of activities, with locations, contact details, opening times and costs in English, French and German. Recommended all the Year Round The Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Observatory is worth a visit at all times of the year, its associated Planets Trails should be walked in summer. The Moiry Dam can be reached by public transport or car in the summer. Paragliding - tandem for a trial and on your own for the more experienced is possible all year round.
