SEPTEMBER 2023

High mountains, masses of snow and plenty of sunshine, all combined with great food and a vibrant entertainment scene — skiing doesn’t get much better than in the Alps.

There are few things like standing high up on a mountain in the Alps, surrounded by craggy summits in all directions, breathing the clear air into your lungs and then turning your ski tips downward to enjoy miles of fantastic skiing all at once. And when you get to the bottom of the valley, just hop on a lift to the next peak and repeat the process again until your legs get tired and you need to grab a seat on an outdoor terrace with a drink.

As the name suggests, alpine skiing as we know it today was originally born in the Alps, and it shows, as skiing and mountain life are deeply rooted in many of the classic resorts of this mountain range. It’s a life that has been passed down through generations of families running hotels, restaurants and stores, creating a culture that is both authentic and hospitable.

Flight to: Geneva

Chamonix, France

French Chamonix, called the capital of the Alps by many, lies in a narrow valley surrounded by continental Europe’s highest mountains, with Mont Blanc at the top. The skiing is spread across four different ski systems and is a bit difficult, but for experienced skiers, Chamonix offers one of the most powerful skiing experiences in the world. Don’t miss a cable car ride up to Aiguille du Midi at 12,474 feet, a hair-raising experience that’s definitely not for someone afraid of heights! From up there, you can enjoy views across the valley and up toward Mont Blanc before skiing through a sparkling glacial landscape (with a mountain guide, of course).

Verbier, Switzerland

At one time, Verbier was made famous to Swedish cinema audiences as Kirchberg in the popular classic movie Sällskapsresan 2 – Snowroller. Now, similarly, Verbier is one of the world’s best ski resorts, located at one end of the large 4 Vallées area that offers skiing for all tastes and levels of difficulty. The resort’s extensive and challenging off-piste skiing is well known, but there are also endless excellent slopes and culinary experiences. And when the ski day is over, the party in the village gets started and doesn’t stop until the early hours.

Zermatt, Switzerland

The picturesque village of Zermatt lies at the end of a narrow valley that ends with perhaps the most famous mountain silhouette in the world: the Matterhorn. Here, the roads are free of cars, with small electric vehicles instead, further adding to the resort’s exclusive feel. The skiing is among the best in the Alps, with everything from endless pistes in perfect condition (how do you feel about skiing 6,560 feet in one run without stopping?) to magnificent off-piste skiing in the shadow of around 20 13,100-foot peaks.
