Verbier A vibrant destination this summer

Mountain Sports in Summer: Verbier in Active Mode

Far from resting once winter is over, Verbier transforms into the alpine capital of summer sports. Ski slopes become some of Switzerland’s most technical downhill mountain biking trails, favored by thrill-seekers. On foot, hikes lead to the summit of Pierre Avoi or the Col de la Chaux, offering spectacular views of the glaciers.

Verbier’s golf course, suspended between sky and valley, features 18 holes at 1,600 meters altitude, surrounded by larch trees. For those who prefer heights, the Gentianes via ferrata or a paragliding flight from the Ruinettes promise unforgettable thrills. In Verbier, summer means performance, nature, and pushing your limits.

Mont Fort: A Breathtaking Alpine Experience

In summer, Mont Fort becomes a must-do excursion for visitors to Verbier. Accessible by cable car, this iconic Swiss Alpine peak reaches 3,330 meters and offers a spectacular 360° panorama of the surrounding highest peaks, including the Matterhorn and Mont Blanc. Whether to admire the sunrise, explore the suspended footbridge, or simply enjoy an unforgettable view, a visit to Mont Fort promises a unique experience blending nature, thrill, and wonder.
