The best ski resorts in Switzerland

There are many fantastic skiing resorts in Switzerland, but some of them are better than others. There aren't many places to ski that are more beautiful that Switzerland, and the plethora of ski resorts there make a ski trip to this country one that you will always remember and always cherish.

Grindelwald

Grindelwald is located in the Bernese Oberland, and is similar to an actual city, although its main purpose is for skiing. There are many bars and restaurants, in addition to a choice of discos and shopping opportunities. Also, there are many places to stay whic are very affordable. In fact, Grindelwald is one of the most affordable ski resorts in Switzerland. Also, Grindelwald is fantastic base camp, because it is only a short distance from other ski resorts.

Gstaad/Saaneland

Another great area for skiing is located in the Bernese Oberland. Gstaad and Saaneland are both excellent to ski, each with fantastic slopes. However, you will be lucky to find cheap accommodaton as most places are fairly expensive. The skiing in this area is best for beginners and also for intermediate skiers.

Murren

Murren is another place for skiing in Switzerland. It is located just above the Lauterbrunnen Valley witin the Bernese Oberland. You can only get to this ski resort by cable car, so it is completely free of traffic and full of chalet-style architecture. It is completely isolated, so you can feel free to be at peace and truly get away for your ski vacation. However, due to its isolation, Murren can be more expensive than other ski resorts.

Verbier

This is the best ski resort in French speaking Switzerland. It is also one of the most fun - with a completely fun filled atmosphere. Although located in a French speaking area, most of the resorts are designed to accommodate English tourists, so the language barrier won't be a problem. This resort is favoured by athletes, because it does have many difficult slopes.

Zermatt

Another great ski resort in Switzerland is Zermatt. This is located in the southwest. It is actually at the foot of the Matterhorn, which makes the surrounding scenery even more beautiful. The resort itself has strict building codes, which means that you will hardly ever see a modern looking building within the resort. The skiing is also fantastic, so no matter what happens you'll have a fantastic time at Zermatt.
