Valais extends from the Furka pass in the east to Lake Geneva in the west. The Rhone valley is surrounded by majestic peaks. Conches valley in Higher Valais has many small villages that have preserved its character, built into the steep slopes. In the winter, it is a cross-country skiing paradise. In Central Valais, the valleys lead to summer and winter resorts known all over the world, such as Zermatt and Saas Fee. Lower Valais, the French-speaking part of the canton, has plains of orchards, market gardens and vineyards. The fashionable sporting resorts of Crans-Montana and Verbier are found here.
