Ski Holidays In The 4 Valleys

The 4 Valleys is the largest linked ski area in Switzerland. There is just over 400km of piste and it catered for all abilities. The main resort in the area, that skiers from all over the world flock to on mass is Verbier but the other resorts that make up the ski region are, Verbier, Nendaz, Veysonnaz, La Tzoumaz and Thyon. As is often the case with Swiss ski holidays it is not the cheapest area in the world to go skiing but, owe my word, it is worth the money! When you are out there the skiing feels as thought it is almost endless, and with the amount of off piste that is on offer on top of the 400km of pisted terrain, it almost is. Verbier specifically is famed for its off piste but the area attracts skiers all off abilities as well as families.

4 Valleys Skiing Holidays

As much as the area is famed for its skiing, there is so much more to the 4 Valleys. It is a beautiful ski region full and is quintessentially Swiss in its nature.

Skiing In The 4 Valleys

Beginner Skiing In The 4 Valleys

People often think of the Four Valleys as being an advanced ski area which is more suited to experts skiers than beginners. While they are right that it is an excellent area for experts, what people fail to realised is that the 4 Valleys is a great ski area for beginners as well. Nedaz has a specific area for beginners to learn to ski with easy rope lifts and magic carpets. The only down side is that you have to get the gondola up to this area rather than it being accessed right from the village, but then this is not usual in European ski resorts. Verbier also caters well for beginners. In Verbier you will find easy access nursery slopes by the village centre as well as further nursery slopes up the mountain which can easily be progressed onto after a few days.

Intermediate Skiing In The 4 Valleys

There is so much skiing in the Four Valleys that intermediate skiers will be kept entertained for days, if not weeks on end. With 412km of piste on offer there is so much variety of skiing that on a week long ski holiday you can ski in a different resort on nearly every day of your holiday should you choose to do so. The slopes in and around Verbier often get very busy so it is a good idea to venture further afield. The ski area of Bruson is well regarded by the locals. It used to be a bit of a hidden secret but with the addition of the Le Chable to Bruson gondola back in 2013 its popularity has increased. It is a great area for intermediates to head to on a powder day if you are after a gentle introduction to off piste skiing.

Advanced Skiing In The 4 Valleys

The Four Valleys is famed for its advanced skiing. Over 40% of the pisted terrain in the Four Valleys is classed within the advanced category and then on top of that there is an abundance of off piste to be found as well. Many skiers who know the area class the Four Valleys as offering the best off piste skiing in Europe, if not the world.  

Off Piste Skiing In The 4 Valleys

The 4 Valleys is an absolute Mecca for off piste skiing. Skiers who love off piste flock to Verbier and the surrounding resorts year after year to enjoy the thrills and the spills of the legendary off piste that the Four Valleys has to offer. Something that makes Verbier and the Four Valleys stand out from the crowd is the offering of official off piste routes. These are known as “Ski Tours” or High “Mountain Ski Tours”. They are intended to be a step up from black runs and they are not controlled or maintained. They get tracked out pretty quickly on a powder day so make sure you are out nice and early if it has snowed the night before! There is an abundance of other off piste routes to be found as well but you will have to decide for yourself what you think is worth skiing and what is not id you ventre off piste and off trail.  

Free Style Skiing And Snowboarding In The 4 Valleys

Snowboarders will love the 4 Valleys for all the same reasons that skiers love it. 400Km of piste, multiple resorts to ride in and out off decent night life and a huge amount of off piste. The snow parks that are on offer will also be of a huge attraction to snowboarders, as well as freestyle skiers. Verbier has great snowpark on offer and if all you want to do on your holiday to the 4 Valleys is ride park then you can by a cheap lift pass for guests staying in Verbier that just allows access to the park. Over in Nendaz they have two further snow parks. They have the beginners park and the “Progression Park” for those looking to take a step up. If you want some professional advice then head to the Progression park on Monday afternoons where they have instructors on hand to give advice and tips.
