Check out the Ski Club’s holidays available in this resort
To the west lies the main area of local slopes, a network of blues and reds linked by fast lifts, and to the east lies steeper slopes – including the World Cup Downhill run – and crucially the link up and over to Arosa. All of the major lifts in the valley are linked by a regular, free bus service which makes getting around easy. The best way to experience this fantastic resort is with Ski Club Freshtracks this winter, on one of our two Luxury Lenzerheide trips.
There are several beginner areas in the Lenzerheide valley, but best of all is the Kinderland Auarara, a quick hop on the bus from the centre of town. From here there is some good progression on to longer blues at Tgantieni and above Parpan further along the valley. Intermediates will love the cruisey terrain to the west of the village, but will also want to explore the full linked area with Arosa – just watch out for the steeper pitches at Urdenfürggli on the way home.
Advanced and expert riders will find some good steep runs off the Stätzerhorn lift above Parpan, but will otherwise want to stick to the east side of the valley. Here there is some very good off piste after fresh snowfall, as well as the World Cup Downhill run. The off piste below the Weisshorn in Arosa and off the newly revamped six-seater Brüggerhorn lift is also well worth exploring.
Accommodation is mostly in smart, family run hotels and most are connected to the lift network by the efficient bus service. Restaurants tend to be hotel- focused, but there is lots of good Swiss fare on offer. On the après ski front, things tend to be quiet, but the Freeridebar at the foot of the racetrack can get lively at times.
This is a great place for a family holiday or for a group with non-skiers. There is a vast network of winter walking trails, particularly on the west side of the valley and by the lake, and the resort is home to some great tobogganing routes. In addition there is ice skating and curling, whilst the sports centre is reportedly excellent.

Updated 30/12
The New Year dawns fine, dry and bright across the Swiss Alps with high pressure lingering across central and western Europe. This will change, however, as the week concludes with cold and unsettled conditions moving in from the East. Around 40cm of snowfall can then be expected over the whole region.
This will begin on Friday, before around a foot falls on higher ground over Saturday. The freezing line will hover around 2,000m, however this will plummet on Sunday meaning the last tail of this snowfall hits all elevations. Conditions then remain bitterly cold into the new week with more snowfall expected.
