With skiing at 2,500 – 3,500 meters altitude, Saas-Fee is really making a statement. With its narrow streets lined with old cottages, Saas-Fee offers a true alpine feel. Guaranteed decent snow falls every year adds to the greatness of this place.
Saas-Fee is a ski resort in southern Switzerland. With all types of skiing experiences, this alpine village is popular with both partygoers and families. The modern ski system is under constant development. There are really exciting off-piste opportunities here for anyone who wants to make a few turns outside the piste. Make sure not to fall down the glacier crevasses that exist here and there outside the safe pistes. The glaciers are present even within the ski system and you can see them as rough blue glacier tongues. Saas-Fee is surrounded by several 4,000-meter high peaks and the high mountains are like amphitheaters with the pistes running down to the village.
Beside skiing, there is a broad range of other activities to get involved in. Why not visit the world’s largest ice cave, Eispavillion?
Saas-Free offers summer skiing as well and makes sure to have a well-equipped snow park each year. This is where the world’s greatest park skiers come together, including Sweden’s Henrik Harlaut, who has released a few full edits here. Saas-Free offers skiing early in the season. Why not try powder there even before Christmas?
