Those of you that have been to either Saas Fee or Zermatt will have certainly driven or caught the train right past this small, but surprisingly varied ski area.
Grächen is located in the same deep valley as these two famous resorts, but it is very different. The uncrowded local slopes are fairly limited in their extent, but offer surprising variety, with everything from good beginner runs to steeper blacks and off piste.
The compact resort centre acts as a great base and is accessed via a winding road from the valley below. Off the slopes, a network of winter walking trails, tobogganing routes and snowshoe paths crisscross the mountainside, making Grächen a great option for mixed groups of skiers and non-skiers.

Snow Overview
Switzerland
Updated 22/01
High pressure currently over the Swiss Alps gives way to more unsettled conditions as the week concludes, allowing the freezing line to remain low and snow to come to many slopes. Across most of the region the freezing line will hover around 1,500m, consistently in the west but offering a more spring-like freeze-thaw oscillation in the east (albeit still cold!)
Snow will begin to fall consistently on Saturday, after a few flurries on Friday, offering around a foot of snow across higher grounds. The weekend will see excellent skiing conditions as around 5cm of fresh powder will greet skiers on cold pistes each morning. This total will increase to around 45cm in Graubunden with higher concentrations on Saturday and Monday. Whilst the freezing line spikes on Tuesday, it is expected to settle cold again with more snow due next week.
