Grimentz National Geographic Article
“With a prime spot in the Valais, but far less visited than the region’s other resorts such as Verbier, Crans-Montana and Zermatt, Grimentz is known for its traditional chalets and lift-accessed off-piste skiing. Home to several ski schools, it caters to all levels, with activities including tobogganing, open-air ice skating and swimming in the municipal pool. Over a third of the lift-linked Grimentz-Zinal ski area’s 70 miles of pistes suit beginners. Relatively high and snow-sure, this quiet spot is a good bet for an Easter trip with small children.” Read it here!
Grimentz has also featured in CNN’s Europe’s 10 hidden resorts to uncover and CNN’s 10 prettiest ski resorts in Europe.
