Verbier

In the latest Good Ski Guide magazine, Verbier was ranked in 3 'Best of the Best' categories - for advanced skiers, off-piste skiing and après-ski. Do we agree? Well… as the top banana of the Four Valleys domain, Verbier has access to 400km of pistes. It has an excellent sun and snow record, particularly at higher altitudes, also offering a limited amount of year-round skiing on the Mont Fort glacier. From here the scenery is absolutely breathtaking. There's a massive array of skiing throughout the area, with unlimited off-piste and great black runs for advanced skiers. There is also a specialist park for boarders. Tuition for better skiers is of the highest order, while the lift system has been constantly upgraded since 1994. The resort itself offers an excellent variety of restaurants, extremely lively nightlife and plenty for non-skiers to do.

Any disadvantages? The skiing lower down can be poor as a result of the sun. There can often be considerable queues. Prices are high, even for Switzerland. The accommodation won't be winning architectural awards any time soon.

Verbier is a superb resort, particularly for better skiers, but as the list of faults confirms, it isn't quite in the same league as some other domains - Whistler, the Trois Vallées and Val d'Isère/Tignes are all a head or more above. Nonetheless, this is a seriously good skiing venue and the views are among the best in the world.
