This tax is compulsory for every person that stays overnight in the area who is not officially a resident. We collect the tax, but it is immediately passed on to the municipality. The tourist tax is 2,5 CHF / day.
Paying this tax gives you access to unlimited and free public transportation in the valley from the village of Vex (ideal for going skiing, hiking or visiting the surrounding villages). It also means that if you want to go down to the city of Sion, you only have to pay between Vex and Sion (around 5 chfs). In addition, you’ll also enjoy free activities and discounts on local museums.
