Ski holidays in Switzerland have a high reputation and Switzerland has earned a certain reputation as the skiing playground of the rich and famous, boasting spectacularly high standards of accommodation and amenities among its first rate spas and traditional chalets. It is also famous in the movies, having featured in Heidi and the James Bond film ‘On Her Majesty’s Secret Service’ most notably.
Ski holidays in Switzerland boast absolutely stunning scenery, particularly due to playing host to the highest ski slopes in Europe at 3,900m above sea level on the Klein Matterhorn above Zermatt, and at some resorts, skiing is available all year round.
Nendaz is an excellent place for a mixed ability group ski holiday with a wide range of slopes available catering for all skills levels. Verbier is the big-name ski resort of Switzerland, combining high-society chic with great all-round skiing, and the aforementioned Zermatt is the absolute crown jewel of ski holidays in Switzerland and has a great reputation amongst seasoned skiers, and offers the now infamous pass-time of the rich and expert skier: heli-skiing. It also boasts a novel form of transport for a ski holiday, as the resort is car free, so ski holiday-goers can either walk, or hire what can only be described as a ‘mountain golf buggy’.
