Saas-Fee

Saas-Fee, often referred to as the "Pearl of the Alps," is situated in the picturesque Saastal Valley, surrounded by thirteen imposing peaks exceeding four thousand meters in height. The resort boasts an extensive network of ski slopes, covering 100 kilometers within Saas-Fee itself, with an additional 50 kilometers in the neighboring areas of Saas-Grund and Saas-Almagel. Visitors holding a single pass can conveniently access these areas by a complimentary half-hour bus ride. It's worth noting that private vehicles are not allowed within the resort, but there are 22 lifts and electric cars to facilitate movement.

For skiers of intermediate proficiency, the red slopes around Felskinn and Langfluh are a rewarding choice. Professional athletes often opt for the challenging FIS track located in the Plattjen sector, positioned at an elevation of 2570 meters, or the steep sections of the slope above Spielboden.

Freeride enthusiasts can explore the exhilarating terrain in the Plattjen area, also at 2570 meters above sea level. Experienced skiers and snowboarders might consider hiring a guide, embarking from the Metro Alpin intermediate station (only served by the morning train), and descending to the Saas-Almagel resort via Britanniahutte. This adventure typically includes guide services and avalanche equipment rental, totaling around 210 CHF.

On the glacier, the Freestyle Park offers an exciting snow park experience, featuring jumps, a half-pipe, and the opportunity to craft personalized tricks and maneuvers.
