Huge and impressive dam with a height of 285 meters. It is the more massive dam with this height in the world. It was built between 1953 and 1961, and 6 million cubic meters of concrete were used to achieve the structure. The huge reservoir created is called "Lac de Dix" - Lake Dix, meaning ten in French. You can drive up to the base of the dam and park your car there. There is a cable car taking you up to the top where you can walk on the verge of the dam and admire the scenery. It's just stunning.

Visited in September before they shut for the winter and well worth the visit of you're in the area. It's hard to imagine how tall the dam is until you're stood at the bottom looking up 😲 we took the inside tour and glad we did as it was quite interesting. My kids also went on the zip wire across the dam and enjoyed it a lot 😁 There is a restaurant in the nearby hotel which serves nice coffees so would recommend a visit there too.

Great place. It's an amazing feeling to stand at the bottom (on the dry side 😁) of the dam. And this awareness of what is on the other side. I recommend.

Very impressive dam when you arrive at the foot. It's a concrete monster. Possibility of going up to the dam on foot or by cable car. At the foot of the cable car, there is an exhibition which explains the construction of the dam. Once you arrive at the top, the view is breathtaking. Whatever the side, the landscape is majestic. The interior tour of the dam isn't bad either. Just a small downside, the temperature (6°C) and you need to bring a little warmer clothing. I recommend the visit in addition to the fact that it is the largest gravity dam in the world.

Probably one of the best places to observe the beauty of the Swiss mountains. Magnificent hikes allowing you to observe the fauna and flora (eagles, chamois, marmots, etc.). The glaciers are visible, explanatory signs along the hikes inform us about the fauna, flora and geology. The ibex trail is incredible to do, bring water, food and good shoes obviously. Possibility of spending a great day of discovery with children but be careful to take away your waste, not leave anything lying around, and above all be silent in order to respect the fragile balance that resides in this place.

It can be said to be the largest dam in the world. and produces enormous amounts of electricity and is a dam that can hold a lot of water Built by human hands, it took a lot of labor and was built for a long time. In addition to being a water storage dam, it is also a tourist attraction. Exercise as well, cycling, hiking, rock climbing, and more. If you don't like walking There is also a cable car service for both going up and down conveniently. The view was very beautiful. I recommend this place.

Incredible huge dam . The water of the gletschers in the area fload in the lake . With the water they produce electricity for the region . Very interesting to make a visit if you enjoy beautiful vieuws and water . If you enjoy walking … there are plenty of routes to walk around the area and beyond . For FR 10 you can take a lift to the top of the dam.

One of the highest dams, the Grande Dixence is a colossal structure. Bordered by hiking trails, open your eyes, lots of marmots are taking ☀️ baths on the stones. A zip line crosses the dam, reserve a slot when you arrive (25.- adults). Enjoy this amazing place.

Impressive dam! On foot, the climb is strenuous (~30-40min), the descent is easy (20-25min) but in both cases I recommend good shoes (the walking path is marked but not present on Google maps, the recommended one gives a detour.) The zip line is awesome! Not an attraction for thrills but one for enjoying the view. The visit to the dam is a bit brief, which is a shame. We would like to have the time to read the information written on the signs along the tour.

The Grande Dixence dam is an impressive gravity dam located in Switzerland. It is the tallest gravity dam in the world, reaching a height of 285 meters. The dam was built between 1953 and 1961, and it is used for hydroelectric power generation. The artificial lake created by the dam is the largest reservoir in Switzerland, offering superb views of the surrounding mountains. The Grande Dixence Dam is a popular tourist attraction, offering guided tours and activities for visitors. If you are interested in architecture and technology, or simply want to enjoy the natural beauty of the area, the Grande Dixence Dam is a place not to be missed. A little cold when going up, equip yourself!

Beautiful views, incredible scale of investment. Only for me - there could be more (e.g. machines, installations, etc.) shown during the tour. Because really, it's a walk with an interesting story along several corridors and climbing the stairs. On the other hand, the price is not high, so there is no disappointment. The trail to the crown is quite short (35-45 min), but rather difficult, I can't imagine doing it wet. Just getting to the dam provides beautiful landscapes.

Superb dam with an impressive dimension. Definitely worth the detour even without a guided tour, because the signs already explain a lot of things. Access by cable car in less than 5 minutes or on foot in less than an hour via a path which is a little steep (with good steps) in the intermediate part. The wider and longer path was prohibited during our visit.

Beautiful day spent in this place with breathtaking views of the Alps where it is possible to take easy walks even for families or venture out as the glaciers approach. Upon reservation, it is possible to take a guided tour inside the underground of the dam to discover the maintenance and history of its construction. Really interesting. You have to cover yourself well because it's 6 degrees in the basement. Suitable for adults and children.

This dam is higher than the Hoover Dam (225m) on the Colorado River. Unbelievable when you drive under it to the parking lot. A 285m wall above you. Like most dams in the Alps, the water is channeled below to the turbines. That wall height is also accentuated by a narrow canyon. Amazing technical work!!!
