Skiing Holidays in Verbier

If you are feeling brave, skiing holidays in Verbier at the Mont Fort mountain range are ideal. This impressive mountain stands at 3,328 metres above sea level. The only way to reach the summit of this mountain is via a cable car from Verbier. Once you reach the top, you can pull on a pair of snowshoes and take a walk around this section of the mountain. Alternatively, you could try your luck on one of the gentle slopes in the peaks. There is also a longer slope that takes you to the bottom of the mountain. Enjoy a meal at the outstanding restaurant at the base of the slope before taking a cable car back to Verbier. The other cable car takes you to Sivies where you can enjoy a meal or shopping trip.

One of the lesser-known regions in Verbier, Dent Blanche provides you with access to a range of different snow sports. With a large glacier on the northside of the mountain, there is less snow on this mountain than others in the Verbier region. However, this does not mean that you won't be able to ski. Take a few lessons in Verbier before you take on the challenging slopes in the region. Alternatively, you could hire a local guide and go on a mountain climbing adventure to reach the very top of this mountain. Once there, you could enjoy a picnic while taking in one of the most spectacular views in all of Europe. After you make your way back down to Verbier, stop in at one of the resorts for a mug of glühwein.

When imagining your skiing holidays in Verbier you are probably envisioning yourself on the peaks of the Mont Blanc Massif. Here, you have the opportunity to take in the views which reveal the Black Forest on a clear day. When you aren't busy hiking your way through the numerous trails on the mountain, it is a good idea to strap on your skis and take advantage of the large amounts of snow here. It may be a good idea to get some training beforehand so you are entirely prepared before hitting the powder, and you can definitely take lessons on Mont Blac. If you are not too fond of the idea of staying in the snow all day, visit one of the local resorts where you can take in the views while staying warm.
