4 Vallées
4 Vallées is Switzerland's largest single-pass ski area, with 412 km of pistes spanning four Valais valleys. Verbier anchors the high end at 1,500 m, with the Mont-Fort cable car climbing to 3,330 m at the area's roof: a famously challenging top-station with steep off-piste lines and views into France and Italy. Beyond Verbier, the lift network connects Nendaz, Veysonnaz, Thyon, La Tzoumaz, and Bruson. Terrain skews advanced; the area's reputation rests on the off-piste sectors off Mont-Fort and Bec des Rosses (host of the Freeride World Tour final).
