Grande Dixence Dam and Zipline - The greatest Dam of Switzerland and Europe - Incredible Monument

The Grande Dixence Dam is the most gigantic project that has ever been realized in Switzerland during the 20th century. It’s one of the most important centres for hydropower and energy storage. The barrage is 285 metres high and thus the largest dam in all of Europe and outside of Asia! Besides the dam and the Lac des Dix, there is also the Zip Line (Tyrollienne), which is 700 meters long. It’s a very thrilling and exciting attraction that one should try when coming up here… and don’t worry… you will be properly instructed and the ride is totally safe!
Also don’t forget to visit the museum of the Barrage de la Grande Dixence, where you can a lot about this dam.
