Explore the Val de Bagnes on a great motorcycle drive in the Swiss Alps on a bright sunny day, on a Honda CB500X to the Dam of Mauvoisin.
The Val de Bagnes is a 25 km long glacial valley, ran down by a 31 km long river called the Drance of Bagnes. The highest peak of the valley is the Grand Combin (4,314 m). And known for its cheese production.
It's also a valley prone to many natural risks, the biggest of them comes from the glacier breakup of Giétro and the flooding that comes with it. As in 1595 where the flood covered 40 km of land, 150 people died on that event and hundreds of buildings were destroyed. A second one is in 1818, even if local people saw it coming months before and started draining the glacier dam holding back the river. But on 16th June, 20 million cubic meters of water hit the valley with the flood peaking to 20 m high, killing 40 people and destroying many cultural sites, dwellings, bridges and mountain pastures.
