Sightseeing
Its the highest cable car in Western Europe - only go if it's a clear day so you can see the views - check out the webcam before going. Sometimes best to block a slot as very busy and you need to buy a ski pass. You can also glacier walk across to Italy under the guidance of a qualified UIAGM mountain guide. In Winter its the start of the infamous off piste run the Valley Blanche.

Parks & Nature
A very special wilderness place for young children - lots of playthings and a small stream running through a very natural wooded park. Pony rides in summer available. Small restaurant and lots of tables. Free entry but need to buy something from the restaurant if you use a table.
