Mont Gond

Mont Gond rises to an elevation of 2,710 meters in the Swiss Alps, featuring steep rocky faces and extensive grasslands throughout its slopes.

Local mountaineers from the Valais region established the initial climbing routes on Mont Gond during the early development of Alpine tourism in Switzerland.

The mountain stands near the ancient Balavaux forest, where centuries-old larch trees hold deep significance in regional Swiss Alpine heritage.

Visitors can reach Mont Gond through the Tracouet gondola lift from Haute-Nendaz, followed by a marked hiking trail system covering 14.2 kilometers.

The summit area contains a natural formation known as the Jardin Japonais, where specific rock arrangements create patterns in the Alpine landscape.
