Nendaz sits in the middle of the 4 Valleys ski area and caters to all levels of skiing ability. The nursery slopes above the village at 2200 metres around the Tracouet lake are a great meeting point for lunch. More advanced skiers and boarders can enjoy some challenging runs down to Siviez and the links with Verbier, via the famous Tortin bowl, and Veysonnaz/Thyon/Les Collons. For non downhill skiers there are 12km of cross country trails, 40km of snow show walks and the ice rink, as well as the luxury Spa Des Bisses at the Hotel 4 Vallees.

Nendaz is equally popular in the summer with a plethora of activities from which to choose. Hikers can take advantage of the 250km of walking trails from the challenging to the easy. The area is famous for its Bisses, medieval irrigation channels that were dug to channel glacial meltwater to the plains and vineyards of the Rhone valley. Footpaths follow the water’s journey through the fields and woods. Other activities include swimming, tennis and paragliding from the lake of Tracouet above the village. Golfers can choose from courses in Sion or across the valley in Crans-Montana.
