The skiing region known as the Swiss
Four Valleys consists of Verbier, Haute Nendaz, Thyon 2,000 and the
subject of this story, Veysonnaz.
Together they make up one heck
of a big, beautiful, and mighty challenging ski playground. And, if
you choose, the whole combo can be had on one super ski pass.
This of course gives you
the opportunity to choose either the whole big ski area, or the
less daunting and taxing skiing in the village confines. In fact
there are 3 lift pass options, one for the Veysonnaz region alone, one which includes
the whole of the Four Valleys, and one which includes all of
the above as well as the Mont Fort. Prices range from SF216 to
285 at writing, with a good saving for families.
There is even a decent amount
of cross country skiing at fairly high altitudes here, so lovers
of that sport can enjoy the area too.There is good night life
in town, and a most International clientele. This will be especially
welcome to those of you who want to meet a good cross section
of Europeans on your ski holiday to Europe. To get to Veysonnaz
look for Sion. It is about 30 minutes form there. The nearest
airports are Zurich, Geneva and Basel.
