| Day 1 |
Our Ski Switzerland tour begins! We値l pick you up from Geneva or Basel Airports and drive you to Meiringen - a traditional mountain village nestled in the mighty Swiss Alps. You値l be free to settle into our cozy lodge in the center of town, and then we値l grab some dinner together and explore the town.
|
| Day 2 |
Today we hit the slopes! We have a choice of five incredible resorts so we値l visit whichever offers the best conditions on the day. If the snow is good, we値l start out at Hasliberg resort - a `locals-only` resort with no crowds, long backcountry runs and an excellent park. After a full day of coaching, we値l head back to Meiringen for some video coaching, followed by a delicious Italian dinner.
|
| Day 3 |
If the conditions suit, today we値l head to Adelboden, a high-profile resort worthy of all respectable Switzerland ski tours but with a surprisingly non-touristy atmosphere. Beginners and experts alike can enjoy over 200 km of runs here. While beginners can continue their development on wide groomed trails, experts can enjoy some off-piste and decent black runs. After a long day of skiing, we値l head to a luxury lakeside hot spring followed by dinner in Interlaken.
|
| Day 4 |
We値l take a short drive to Grindelwald, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is famous throughout the world over for its incredible setting. In addition to beginner-friendly wide slopes and extensive backcountry, Grindelwald has a 15 km sledge run, Europe痴 longest. At the end of the day we値l traverse over to an isolated mountain hut where we値l dine on a traditional Swiss fondue and then jump on sleds for a night time ride down Europe痴 longest toboggan trail!
|
| Day 5 |
Today we値l head to Murren, the region痴 highest resort (3000+ m), offering long runs, great steeps, awesome backcountry and panoramic views of the famous Eiger, Munch and Jungfrau peaks. After skiing we値l head to the Swiss capital of Bern, one of Europe痴 most impressive medieval cities (UNESCO protected), so you can take advantage of late night shopping and check out its many shops, cafes, bars and restaurants.
|
| Day 6 |
Our final day to ski Switzerland, so the choice is yours! We can check out Wengen, the final of the five resorts and a popular destination for all Switzerland ski tours, or we can head back to whichever previously visited resort the group has enjoyed most. At the end of our final day of coaching and video instruction, we値l head back to Meiringen for our final dinner and party.
|
| Day 7 |
Our ski tour of Switzerland is over! We値l drop you off at either Geneva or Basel Airports.

Ask any of our past campers and they値l tell you that what made our Swiss Alps Ski Tour the best ski vacation Switzerland- or Europe- had to offer was the people they met and the fun they had hanging out with the group. Of course, if you want a quiet and relaxing week to yourself, you池e totally free to do so. But if you do want to use our Alps ski tour to get to know some awesome people and to enjoy some memorable nights out, there are always plenty of willing participants and plenty of things to do! Meiringen offers a good selection of bars, clubs and restaurants. Every night we値l book a restaurant for those who want to eat as a group. For those on a ski vacation Switzerland offers a good selection of international food (Italian, Mexican, French) as well as typical local dishes like Fondue, Raclette and Rosti. Budget US$15-$25 per dinner and US$8-$12 for lunches. In addition to checking out the restaurants in Meiringen, we値l also spend evenings in Bern (Swizerland痴 capital city) and the famous resort town Interlaken. One evening we値l also have a traditional fondue dinner in a remote mountain hut overlooking the world famous Eiger North Face.
