First Tracks
The First Tracks experience is your chance to ski in a unique and exclusive way. Discover the mountain as never before. Feel the tranquillity of freshly groomed, virgin slopes. You will be among the first to make tracks in the snow and descend the slopes before the other skiers arrive.
Afterwards, you will be treated to a hearty and delicious continental breakfast at the Flocon restaurant in Les Attelas. Are you ready to be spoiled?
Mont-Fort
Explore the diversity of the Verbier 4Vallées ski area, where some hurtle down the pistes while others prefer a leisurely stroll.
The Mont Fort panoramic platform is sure to enchant lovers of great landscapes. Climb the steps to the summit, where you will discover a glazed platform perfect for admiring the majesty of the surrounding peaks including the Matterhorn, Mont Blanc, the Grand Combin and the Dent d’Hérens. A unique experience, a moment of disconnection to appreciate with your own eyes or capture forever with your camera.
Not far from Mont Fort, you can find the Mont 4 Zipline to glide over the Tortin glacier before stopping off at one of the two nearby restaurants for a gourmet break.
Dog sledding
Get a taste of the Far North as you glide through the snowy landscape on a sledge drawn by huskies. Aline Luisier has loved these dogs ever since she was a teenager and will be delighted to share this wonderful experience with you. You can even become a musher for the day!

Paragliding
How would you like to go paragliding and see the world from above? Take off from Les Ruinettes, catch the air currents and admire all the snow-capped peaks in the Val de Bagnes.
A number of paragliding schools offer tandem flights, so get ready for take-off!
Ski touring
If you prefer reaching the top of the slopes on skis rather than using the lifts, or letting off steam after a hard day’s work, then ski touring is what you’re after.
A great activity which is suitable for night-time, too! Take a look at our suggestions.
Cross-country skiing
Have you tried cross-country skiing yet? It’s based on Nordic skiing and is definitely worth discovering if you like fresh air and outdoor sports.
At Les Ruinettes, you can try both classic cross-country skiing and skate skiing on a fabulously scenic slope that stretches over 2.5 km.
