Where to Ski in Switzerland
Written by Zoe Smith, United Kingdom, December 2012
Few countries can lay claim to such stunning winter landscapes as Switzerland, and the country’s traditional mountain villages have long been the destination of choice for those with a yearning for snow. Europe’s highest concentration of 13,123-feet (4,000-meter) peaks are crammed into the Swiss mountain ranges, with an ample menu of ski runs to choose from – everything from gentle beginner slopes to hair-raisingly steep glacial passes.
The Eastern Graubűnden region is one of the country’s most popular holiday destinations with glitzy resorts like Davos and St Moritz flying the flag for the area’s elite. The former might be the larger resort in the area, but it’s St Moritz that earns the title of Switzerland’s premier resort – exorbitantly priced chalets host Europe’s rich and famous, and although there are some cheaper options in town, this is not the place for those on a budget.
