Crans Montana

Ski resorts in Switzerland
Crans Montana is located in the middle of the Swiss Alps and offers a classically picturesque Swiss village surrounded by mountains. The mountains around the village are relatively steep and the skiing will be accordingly. There is a large selection of advanced slopes, unfortunately this also means that the range for the beginner can be perceived as scant.
For the advanced skier, however, it is a pleasant place, with a drop of 4593,2 feet and black and red slopes as a common theme, there is a lot to choose from. For those who want to go off-piste, the possibilities are also very good and there is access to a guide for lift-borne freeride, ski touring and even heli skiing!

Something to do that is not quite so standard is the opportunity to ski on the local golf course. Another odd activity is the opportunity to go night skiing, but illuminated only with the participants' own torches. Nothing that invites maximum charging cap, but undeniably a unique experience.

Have been to Crans-Montana one day. Although the resort certainly is not bad, there was nothing that gave more flavor than other places in the area. ... Read more (98 words)
