Introduction
Leave the fur-lined heiress in St Mortiz and come to Verbier with a horde of family and friends. In any season, Verbier is the classic Swiss oasis whether you seek snowy slopes, fireside wine, Gruyère, or Alpine revelry.

- No need to spend a small fortune for a ski holiday. Rent a chalet with a group of friends and get back to basics.
- Or come in March, when it is quieter than the New Year’s holiday and just as satisfying.
- Summer in Verbier offers exciting events such as the annual Fest'Off with street shows and nightly concerts.
- Don’t get Verbier confused with its brash cousin, Gstaad, where designer ski suits matter most.
- To optimise a long weekend, arrive before 18.00 on Friday, rent your skis and head to the mountain in the morning.
