Champéry
A Hidden Gem for Luxury Skiing and Winter Charm in Switzerland
Where Swiss Tradition Meets World-Class Skiing
Nestled at the foot of the majestic Dents du Midi mountain range, Champéry is a picturesque village that perfectly blends Swiss alpine charm with access to one of the largest ski areas in the world. Known for its stunning scenery, cozy atmosphere, and luxurious offerings, Champéry is an ideal destination for skiers and winter holiday enthusiasts alike.
A Gateway to the Portes du Soleil
Champéry is part of the renowned Portes du Soleil ski area, which spans over 400 miles of ski runs across Switzerland and France. With a wide range of slopes catering to all levels, from gentle greens to challenging blacks, it’s a paradise for skiers and snowboarders. The panoramic views from the Croix de Culet cable car, rising to nearly 6,500 feet, provide a breathtaking start to every ski day. Adventurers will enjoy the off-piste opportunities, while families can take advantage of ski schools and beginner-friendly zones.
An Authentic Swiss Village with Modern Luxuries
Champéry’s traditional wooden chalets and cobblestone streets create a warm, authentic alpine vibe. At the same time, the village offers modern amenities, including boutique hotels, gourmet restaurants, and luxurious spas. After a day on the slopes, relax with Swiss specialties like raclette or fondue, paired with fine local wines. The inviting après-ski scene strikes a perfect balance between lively and laid-back.
Winter Activities Beyond Skiing
Champéry offers more than just world-class skiing. Explore scenic snowshoe trails, glide across the ice at the Palladium Ice Rink, or experience the thrill of sledding runs. The nearby Thermal Baths of Val d’Illiez provide a rejuvenating soak in warm mineral-rich waters. For something truly unique, take a helicopter tour for an aerial view of the stunning Dents du Midi peaks.
Easy Access and Central Location
Conveniently located just 75 miles from Geneva, Champéry is easily reachable by car or train. The scenic rail journey from Geneva to Champéry is a highlight in itself, offering stunning views of Lake Geneva and the surrounding alpine landscapes.
Why Champéry Stands Out
Champéry’s unique combination of access to the vast Portes du Soleil ski area, its authentic Swiss charm, and luxurious amenities make it a standout destination for winter holidays. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, Champéry promises an unforgettable alpine experience.
