The skiing around Verbier is phenomenal. As the largest ski area in Switzerland, the 4 Valleys boasts extensive lift-linked skiing both on and off-piste. Its vast terrain is varied and interesting - providing endless days of skiing for every level from beginner to world champion! Whether you're thirsting for the legendary off-piste or just making your first snowplough turns - Verbier welcomes you!
A number of ski & snowboard schools offer expert tuition to all levels. Beginners are very well catered for on the gentler slopes of Les Esserts and La Chaux. Experienced skiers may fancy heading off-piste down the legendary Mont Gele and Mont Fort.
Whatever your level, we have contacts across the schools. Please get in touch for help in organising a lesson.
Those with good sense of adventure can hire a ski guide and strike out in search of fresh & exciting snow. Far away from the crowds of the piste, a guide can safely show you the lesser known off-piste runs.
Explore further into the mountains with a day tour and take advantage of the extensive lift network. Speak with us for referrals or visit www.powder-extreme.com or www.guideverbier.com
If you like skiing off-piste, you will really like heliskiing. Already the "off-piste Alpine capital", Heliskiing takes this to an entirely new level.
Magnificently long runs to remember for years to come can be made from the Trient Glacier, Rosablanche, Petit Combin, and Pigne d'Arolla amoungst other landing sites.
Heli trips can be combined with tours and organised by Heli Alps, Heliskiing Switzerland or Guides Verbier. Speak to us if you would like us to help or give further recommendations.
