Verbier / Boarding & freestyle

The snow park - with cheap lift ticket - is right by La Chaux, but it's the off-piste that makes Verbier one of the extreme boarder resorts in Europe.

Verbier's snow park is right by La Chaux, www.mysnowpark.ch. If that?s all you need, you can buy a daily ?Snowpark? rate ticket for SFR40 to access the large area?s rails, jumps and boarder cross for all levels; there are plans for a half pipe. Another skier/boarder cross area is at Snowpark Taillay above La Tzoumaz.

Elsewhere the off piste makes Verbier one of the extreme boarding resorts of Europe, with competitions such as the O'Neill Xtreme (www.xtremeverbier.ch) and Verbier Ride (www.verbierride.com) each year. Some of the run-outs from the best off-piste routes can be a long struggle on a board, including Mont Fort descents along the shores of the Lac des Cleuson. The Lac des Vaux and the Vallon d'Arbi provide perfect natural terrain for freestylers, but the steepest terrain tends to get well bumped after a few snow-free days, so it?s less than ideal on a board. More useful is the absence of draglifts in the main Verbier area.
