Crans Montana is an undiscovered Swiss gem with scorching potential. Located on a south facing, sun drenched plateau, perched high above the Rhone Valley, this lively and cosmopolitan resort affords its guests a panoramic balcony of the Alps; from the Matterhorn to Mont Blanc and our luxury Crans-Montana chalets take full advantage of those views.
INTRODUCTION
Boasting 200km of scenic views, 140 km of downhill pistes, some 30 km of cross country trails and 100% sunshine, you’d be hard pushed to find a destination that both caters and delivers for all appetites. Amid more than 250 boutiques and over 50 restaurants, not to mention the endless après ski venues, this family friendly resort is a heaven for the beginner, intermediate and advanced skier in search of the ‘steep and deep’. Distilled with lovely alpine charm Crans-Montana is synonymous with wide, inviting nursery slopes and hair-raising descents crowned by the 3,000m Plaine-Morte glacier. Blessed with a modern and efficient lift system connecting the valleys, queues are few and far between allowing you maximum time on the slopes and optimum exposure to the sunny and spectacular proportions of this truly unique ski resort. Furthermore all of our ski chalets in Crans-Montana have the convenience of ski-in & ski-out. Although smaller than its Swiss contemporaries, Crans-Montana is bustling with activity and amusement for the non-skier. Celebrated for hosting Europe’s second largest golf event, the Omega European Masters in September at one of the highest 18 hole golf courses in the Alps, Severiano Ballesteros golf course, as well as being the only winter mountain resort to host a pop rock festival, Caprice Festival, Crans-Montana offers activities for everyone.There really is no excuse not to discover this diamond of a ski resort. Pop over to Crans Montana for a long weekend. Shorter stays are a simple delight here due to its proximity to Sion airport; it is possible to be on the slopes within 2 hours of stepping off the plane – not something many Alpine resorts can lay claim to.
