Verbier Town

Verbier is home to the first ever Altitude Futures Gap Course and offers the very best in Alpine Charm. However, don't be fooled into thinking this is a quiet town. The nightlife and après ski is truly difficult to beat!

The fun starts at the 1936 bar on the mountain; this is a great place to relax in the sun after a hard day of skiing or snowboarding. The Farinet (Altitude Partner) is located in the centre of town and is the venue for live bands and extreme après ski. This is a lively bar for those happy to dance the evening away in ski/board boots, but be warned you may be required to dance on the bar, or even perform a stage dive!

In Verbier, you can expect to ski hard by day and party hard by night!
