Verbier is the gateway to the 4 Vallées ski area – with nearly 100 lifts and more than 400 km (250 miles) of ski runs. The Mont-Fort, the highest point of the ski area (3,330 m / 10,920 ft), offers spectacular views of Alpine peaks such as the Matterhorn or the Mont-Blanc. A freeride paradise, Verbier is a must for skiers and snowboarders from all over the world, and its après-ski and aperitifs are a veritable institution on terraces where a cosmopolitan clientele of all generations is to be found.

Perched on a sunny plateau in the heart of the mountains, with its slate-rooted chalets, Verbier has carefully maintained its charm as an alpine village. Made up of picturesque villages, the Val de Bagnes stretches for more than 25 kilometers (15.5 miles), from Le Châble to the impressive Mauvoisin Dam. This is a veritable kaleidoscope of surroundings – from pastures to eternal glaciers – and the region is home to one of Switzerland’s greatest natural reserves.



While Verbier is a true paradise for winter sports, its summer options are just as appealing and are an open invitation to endless discoveries. The resort is a huge adventure playground for those skilled at mountain biking. The ski lift network makes it possible for everyone to appreciate the beauty of the mountains. Other sports are naturally also plentiful and be it on land or in the air, you’ll find whatever you need in Verbier. A rich cultural agenda, sports events throughout the year, shopping, gastronomy, history and night life are just some of the many aspects that you will find in the resort and that will make your stay unforgettable. In Winter, Verbier hosts the "Xtreme Verbier", an event where fearless snowboarders descent the slopes at breakneck speed. Classical music lovers come to town in summer for the "Verbier Festival and Academy", and thousands of mountain-bikers meet in August every year for the hardest mountain-bike race in Switzerland, the "Grand Raid".
