Close to the Italian border, Saas Fee in Switzerland has been attracting mountain lovers for years. The charming farming village has a pedestrianized centre and maintains a strong sense of Swiss tradition as well as world-class skiing. In Saas Fee, you are encouraged to leave your car behind, walk the picturesque streets and enjoy a horse-drawn sled or jump on an electric bus when you want to get around. Situated at 1,800m it is also one of the highest and most snow-sure resorts in Switzerland. Those eager skiers and hikers are well catered for with plenty of bars, restaurants and a vibrant social scene.

Winter in Saas Fee

There is plenty of skiing here for all standards with most slopes north-facing and holding the snow well.

 

Beginners and Intermediates will find plenty of good skiing on the lower slopes while experts tend to head to the glacier which has some terrific skiing all the way up to 3,500m.

 

Indeed, such is the altitude, that you will find ski teams and eager enthusiasts enjoying the glacier skiing right though till June before starting again in the early Autumn. When you are up there, why not enjoy a spot of lunch in the world’s highest rotating restaurant!

 

Back in town, the smaller ‘Hannig’ mountain provides some designated routes for snowshoeing, winter-hiking and tobogganing.

Summer in Saas Fee

Saas Fee is a true, year-round alpine resort and you will find plenty of activities on offer during the summer.

 

The bars and restaurants spill out onto the payments and cater for the hikers and mountain bikers as they come down from a day in the mountains.

 

Kids will love the Feeblitz, which is a fun toboggan ride on fixed tracks that makes for a great afternoon’s activity.
