The town of Bex has a surprisingly rich and diverse heritage, both geological and cultural. Immerse yourself in history by exploring the Bex Salt Mines, discovered in the 15th century, then treat your taste buds to the local gastronomy. Then take to the skies on the R74 cog railway, which takes you from Bex to the Col de Bretaye, offering breathtaking panoramic views.
But the adventure doesn't stop there. Head up the Avançon river, where cascades and waterfalls punctuate your journey through its spectacular gorges, to the authentic hamlet of Les Plans-sur-Bex. A little higher up, discover the century-old alpine botanical garden of Pont-de-Nant and be enchanted by the wild beauty of the Vallon de Nant nature reserve.
