Ski Superval


Veysonnaz, Haute Nendaz, La Tzoumaz and Verbier

Ski 4V!

The 4 valleys area, with 410 km of piste, apart from its sheer size, has something to offer every range of ability and preference. The top station of Mont Fort (3300m) provides spectacular views of many of the highest peaks in the Alps as well as the opportunity to ski or watch the experts descending one of the classic black runs. The celebrated snow bowl of Tortin, with its unpisted ‘ski tour’ routes from the Glacier lift, Mont Gelé and Chassoure, affords tremendous scope for the accomplished skier. Snowboarders are of course very well served throughout the region and off piste possibilities are superb.

With slopes facing in all directions, there is plenty of sun to be enjoyed, especially on the Verbier Savoleyres slopes during the morning. For the non-skier there are 90 km of winter hiking trails on cross country tracks and snowshoe excursions. Finally, the closeness of the resorts to the Rhône Valley means that access by car or train and post bus is excellent.
