Verbier is located in the 4 Valleys ski domain. Therefore it spreads into 410 Km of marked ski runs and no less than 92 installations.
Another asset of Verbier is its adventure park: The Médran. In this suspended world, hanging over 800 meters, you will learn to move from tree to tree. Nepalese bridges, Tyrolean traverses and clamping stirrups constitute part of this suspended footpath. The Médran also counts an 11.5m tower with four equipped faces, specially designed for rock climbing initiation. Supervision is guaranteed by professionals from the Swiss ski school.
Discovery lovers will enjoy the Combins train: a scenic railway that takes 3 weekly trips to the Bagnes valley. There, museums, the Mauvoisin dam or local products will be awaiting for you. The scenic railway becomes a free shuttle taking passengers throughout the resort, during the other days.
