Nendaz lies on the northern slopes above the Rhône Valley in Valais, where alpine pastures rise from vineyards and orchards toward the high summits of the Four Valleys. The commune includes Haute-Nendaz, its principal resort settlement, and Siviez, a mountain hamlet at lift connections serving the ski area shared with Verbier, Veysonnaz and Thyon. In summer, paths follow historic bisses, irrigation channels that carried water across the dry slopes for farming. Local cooking reflects Valais traditions, with raclette and wines from the Rhône Valley prominent on menus.
