Saas Fee

Resort description:One of our favourites in Switzerland, this traffic free resort offers high altitude snow sure skiing from a pretty and atmospheric village base, which for Switzerland is quite lively.Superb skiing with a bustling nightlife, Saas Fee is an unspoilt resort, offereing visitors a true taste of traditional Switzerland with its Valasian farmhouses and pretty buildings.Great for early and late season skiing and best for beginners and intermediates and always good skiing even in a poor season..

The terrain is vast with many nursery slopes, the Felskinn for intermediates and the more challenging skiing on the Fee glacier. The village itself is car free where guests can be transported around resort in an electric taxi. The resort also offers a bustling nightlife (where the Popcorn Bar is the place to be seen) along with many restaurants.

A Glacier resort with guaranteed snow on the Saas glacier known as the Pearl of the Alps and the snow covered peaks of switzerlands highest mountain "The Dom". Saas Fee has excellent snow conditions due to the fact that is circled by glaciers. However though the area is not exactly large and rhe runs are not really steep, but for a week for an intermediate skier, the resort is an excellent and snow sure choice.Good for short breaks too.

Night life is varied and whilst not on a par with many Austrian resorts it is still an excellent place to go out and enjoy apres ski as well as eat well in some excellent restaurants.The Happy Bar and the Popcorn offer lively nights but there are many bars to visit and fun to be had! After hours can be enjoyed at the Poison Disco.
