Esta barragem hidrelétrica é a mais elevada do mundo (285 metros de altitude)e é a maior obra de engenharia moderna na Suíça. Ótimo passeio!

Un posto sicuramente da vedere! È fantastico, consiglio di salire con la funivia e scendere a piedi, è bella sia vista dal basso che direttamente sopra la diga, è la piu alta al mondo e il paesaggio attorno è formidabile, l 'ho visitata ad agosto ma le montagne piu alte sono perennemente innevate, se si va in vacanza nel Vallese la diga si DEVE vedere!

we visited the trimended place and walked around the lake. we even passed the night on the parking in front of the wall in a camping car.

Simplesmente fabulosa, de tirar o fôlego! Recomendo pegar o teleférico e subir até o topo para ter uma ampla visão desta obra grandiosa!

Driving up to the dam we didn't have much of a feeling of seeing the dam. But once we got our first sight of the dam both of us said WOW!! It looked so alien!! Once we reached the parking lot and walked up to the gondola we were in awe. A little museum showed a short film of the building of the dam. Another wow! Took the 4 minute ride up and saw the dam from the top. We really liked what we saw. The water was such a milky color from the soft white stones. We hiked around the water and it was such a nice walk, walking through tunnels. So many wild flowers on the mountain. We really were amazed with the dam and highly recommend this place to see if you are in the area.

The drive from Sion was very spectacular, going through lots of small villages , the meadows were full of wild flowers, very pretty. We drove up to the dam and found the tourist information place. We wanted to do the tour of the inside of the dam and the cable car, total combines cost 15chf. There was a problem with the ticket machine and waited for quite a long time before it was decided to write on the back of the tickets and let the cable car man know. As my friend was using crutches we asked about house safe /easy the tour would be , and were told that there were some steep steps, and that it would be best if we walked to the chapel and waited there for the rest of the group to arrive for 11.30 start . This we did, but at 11.40 the guide and the group walked past the chapel without looking for us, this meant we had to try to catch up with them. It was an unmade rocky path and my friend struggled a bit.We then were taken inside, and shown some machinery, but the guide only spoke in French, and we had no leaflets to explain what it was, luckily my friend speaks French so she could translate for the rest of the people. We then had to climb some steps to enter the inside of the wall and walk through the tunnels. It was quite dark, and one lady got rather panicky. It wasn`t very well lit and the steps were rather difficult to see.Most of the walk there was a grill on the ground but in some parts there was nothing, this meant that as the tunnel was round it was wet in the bottom and quite difficult to avoid getting your feet wet. Walking with legs wide apart was the only option unless you had boots on. There were lots of steps inside and one set was very steep. To be honest I was disappointed that there was no working machinery to see, it was really just a walk through the inside of the wall,There was a film shown about the construction , that was very interesting, but again it was in French, no subtitles, Don't let this put you off visiting, it was an experience, but could have been made better .The cable ride to the top was great and the walk across the top of the dam was worth it just for the views. Luckily it was a warm day and not windy. The hotel has a food area and the meals were very reasonable priced. There is also a picnic area just a short distance away.

During a summer of continual poor weather we hoped a break in the cloud cover and rain would allow a fruitful trip to the dam. The weather cleared and we were very impressed by the size of the dam, and the engineering and construction achievements. Worth walking up to the dam summit instead of using the cable car and there are further walks around the nearby mountains.

If you like your scenery big, then do not miss a trip to see the dam! Both the dam and the surrounding 10,000ft peaks will astound you in their magnitude. The photos shown above do not do justice to the scale of the place. The dam itself is massive and it's at least 300ft from the top of the dam down to the lake. We thought that this would be just another day out in Switzerland, but it turned out to be one of the highlights of our whole trip to the country. Afterwards follow the signs to the picture postcard village of Evolene, not far away, which is unmissable too.

The dam is open to the public for a limited time only - June to September. If you're in the area during this time don't miss going to the dam. The drive there is very picturesque but then you get to the bottom of the dam. We took the guided tour and it was very informative, you get to walk in the dam for a while. Then we took the cable car to the top of the dam (you can also hike) and from the some 2,300 m the view of the valley is gorgeous and The lake is fantastic.

Our Swiss host felt that if we were in his part of Switzerland, this was a must see, so he took us up there on the second day of our trip. The ride up was amazing, with twisting, winding roads that we are very unused to in Central Canada. The Dam itself was remarkable! The sheer size of it will take your breath away and the museum showing its construction at a time when todays machinery and technology was not available was really something to think about. We took the trolley up to the top, then spent an hour or so walking the trails and tunnels around the lakes edge, which was heaven for me with my love of photographing flowers! Even though it was late season, there was still a beautiful array of them! We then chose to walk back down, rather than ride, so enjoyed the journey down as well as the little church constructed for the workers that is half way down to the main buildings. They have a restaurant that was too busy for our liking so we carried on, but not before stopping at the little gift shop on site.
