Most of the challenging opportunities in Saas Fee are well away from the main slopes. The glacier that divides the area means that even with a guide the crevasse hazard limits off-piste opportunities between the slopes. Further afield are multiple options, almost all of which require some climbing on foot and glacier crossings, but usually on less badly crevassed sections. While there are off-piste opportunities in abundance in Saas Fee, it?s not a resort that earns the title of ?lift-served off-piste Mecca?.

On piste there are a few short black runs, but the majority of the mileage is on moderate reds whose main challenge is their length. Descending without stopping from Allalin or from Längfluh to Saas Fee is a worthy test. The best ?serious? pistes in Saas Fee, including an FIS World Cup run, are on the lower half of Plattjen. There?s also an unpatrolled itinerary on this side, and tree skiing, and a longer itinerary on the main area starting just above Spielboden which descends almost to the base area.
