Crans-Montana is one of the sunniest ski resorts in Switzerland, perched on the south facing slopes above Sierre, this certified «Family Destination» is the perfect place to spend family time in every season.
The mountain is a beginners & intermediate skier’s paradise, offering many options of blue and green slopes for easy learning near the famous golf course (home to the European Master’s). “Snow Island” is the family meeting place in winter, where snow-tubing, drag lifts and a magic carpet welcome beginner skiers and sledders.
There are also intermediate slopes at altitude at the top of the Arnouva gondola – free to everyone. For more advanced skiers, the Plaine-Morte cable car brings you to the top of the ski resort at 2927m, with stunning 360° degrees views of the surrounding mountains, glaciers and the Rhône Valley far below, and challenging runs back to the base.
Plenty of non-skiing activities are also offered year-round: visit to a local cheese-maker, indoor climbing park, dog sledding, Swiss Model Railway Foundation (a historic collection representing 150 years of Swiss railways), ice skating, and swimming pools.
With a wide array of luxury hotels and chalet options, as well as renowned gastronomic opportunities both in town and on the mountain, Crans-Montana provides an incredible base for an introduction to skiing in the Alps.
