skiing Switzerland: Snow up your Life!

Switzerland offers breathtaking alpine beauty. Traditional top ski resorts such as Davos or Zermatt alternate with family-friendly and idyllic winter sports resorts.

Bernese Oberland:
Numerous 4,000 m mountains, idyllic villages, modern lift systems and famous winter sport resorts including Grindelwald or Meiringen-Hasliberg guarantee a fine ski holiday! In addition to panoramas of the Breinz and Thun lakes, spectacular panoramas of the icy highlands and the world-famous peaks, e.g. Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau can be enjoyed every day!

Graubünden:
The largest of the Swiss cantons presents itself as very versatile: varied ski areas, such as Flims-Laax-Falera, numerous spa facilities, world-famous ski resorts like Davos, St. Moritz or Samnaun, combined with first-class Swiss cuisine! It is not in vain that celebrities from all over the world come here year after year to enjoy the perfect winter holiday.

Wallis:
Wallis – a versatile winter paradise! Imposing backdrops of peaks, ice and snow: the highest mountains in Switzerland, crowned by the Matterhorn, stand here. The largest alpine glaciers are here as well, among them the Aletsch glacier, and impressive ski regions such as 4 Vallées, Saas-Fee and Les Portes de Soleil. Snowy forests and cosy, old wooden houses round off the breathtaking scenery.

Central Switzerland:
Central Switzerland stretches over five cantons - and the winter sports regions, stretching over rocky and icy highlands to the far hill country, are correspondingly diverse. The ski area Engelberg is located in the middle of the high Swiss Alps and is characterised by the imposing peak of the Titlis, which entices skiers and boarders from all corners of the world!
