Zermatt
“ My wife and I decided to celebrate a 10-year anniversary in Zermatt this year. We're from the Northeastern US and figured if we're going to take a ski holiday why not go big and go to Europe. Trip was in early March and we went without kids. Settled on Zermatt for the range of terrain and the sense that -- as posted by another here -- if you only do Europe...” --AgWagon
Saas Fee
“ I've been coming to Saas-Fee for the past seven years every Christmas and New year for two weeks. Though I don't actually stay in the Fee, rather the village of Unter den Bodmen halfway between Saas-Almagell and Saas-Grund, I spend the majority of my time skiing there.

Verbier
“ It's hard to believe that there are no reviews posted for Verbier, as this is undoubtedly one of the best destinations in the Alps.

Davos Klosters
“I was there with a big group, so the price reflected a huge discount. Snow was great. There only complain we had is strange lift arrangements: there was no lift to loop out Davos itself.” --alexfe

Amden
The attractive snow-sport area Amden above the little town of Weesen at Lake Walen guarantees a change for the whole family. The smallest guests already learn to stand on skis when our ski and snowboard instructors, especially good with children, teach them.
