Your ski holiday package in the Swiss Alps

On your trip to Switzerland, explore the renowned resort of Crans-Montana, where unforgettable mountain adventures and unique discoveries await you at every turn!

Swiss skiing holidays in Crans-Montana

During your ski holiday in Switzerland, carve down the thrilling slopes of one of the most prestigious ski areas in the Alps: Crans-Montana. From 1,500 to 3,000 metres above sea level, the resort offers 140 kilometres of ski runs and a snowpark, with terrain suitable for every level of skier.

To make your skiing experience even smoother, Agence 1786 can arrange Fastlane ski passes for you, ensuring priority access to chairlifts and gondolas—no queues, just more time on the slopes.

Crans-Montana’s elevated position above the Rhône Valley offers a stunning panoramic view of the Swiss Alps—best admired from the breathtaking Plaine Morte Glacier at 2,927 metres altitude. Here, you’ll ski alongside iconic peaks like Mont Blanc, the Weisshorn, and the Matterhorn.

And for a truly off-the-beaten-track experience, our team can organize a private heliskiing adventure with a certified mountain guide. Drop into untouched powder fields, accessible only by helicopter, and descend through wild, pristine alpine landscapes—far from the crowds. With vertical drops ranging from approximately 1,500 to 2,500 metres, starting from a glacier or a legendary summit (depending on your preferences and skill level), you’re about to live the dream of every passionate skier.

Excursion to Verbier, one of the best ski resorts in Switzerland

During your Swiss ski holiday package, Agence 1786 offers an exclusive day trip to the Verbier ski area, departing from Crans-Montana.

The two resorts are approximately 80 kilometers apart (about 1 hour and 20 minutes). A private chauffeur will pick you up from your hotel in Crans-Montana early in the day and drive you to Verbier in a modern, spacious vehicle fully equipped for the snowy conditions of the region.

Verbier, part of the 4 Vallées ski area—the third-largest in the Alps after Les 3 Vallées and Les Portes du Soleil—boasts 410 kilometers of pistes across the entire domain (with 106 kilometers in the Verbier - La Tzoumaz - Savoleyres - Bruson sector), as well as world-class freeride terrain, making it an exceptional destination for skiers of all levels. A snowpark, a ski cross course, and the breathtaking viewpoint from Mont-Fort at 3,300 metres are among the area’s top highlights.

Curious to explore beyond Switzerland? Consider Courchevel & Méribel in the French Alps, part of Les 3 Vallées, or Morzine & Les Gets in the cross-border Portes du Soleil ski area between France and Switzerland.

And what about non-skiers during your stay in Crans-Montana?

Not a skier, or simply looking to take a break from the slopes? We’ve got you covered! Crans-Montana offers a wide range of off-slope activities for a truly memorable winter experience.

The resort features no less than 100 kilometers of marked snowshoe trails—perfect for exploring with a qualified mountain guide. While nature may be in its winter slumber, your guide will lead you along scenic paths with breathtaking views of the Swiss Alps, in search of animal tracks and signs of life quietly unfolding amidst the snow-covered peaks. Magical moments that will stay with you long after your trip!

At Agence 1786, we believe in discovering a destination not only through outdoor adventures but also through immersive cultural experiences. And in Valais, culture is deeply rooted in its culinary heritage. The region is famed for its cheese, dried meats, and apricots—but above all, for its wine.

Set off on an intimate wine tour through the vineyards of Valais and meet the passionate winemakers who embody the soul of the region. Taste a selection of fine wines from Switzerland’s largest wine-growing area, known for its diversity—ranging from dry and fruity to full-bodied, floral, and bold. During this exclusive day immersed in the world of Valais wines, you’ll discover emblematic grape varieties such as Cornalin, Fendant, Johannisberg, Heida, Petite Arvine, and Syrah.
