Mountain Review: Crans-Montana
Sunny views, more than 20 on-mountain restaurants and a modern lift system make Crans-Montana an easygoing luxury ski trip. But its south-facing slopes and intermediate-focused terrain hold it back.
Mountain Review: Verbier 4 Vallées
Six linked ski areas and patrolled freeride terrain make Verbier 4 Vallées one of the best big-mountain destinations in Europe. But south-facing snow and a confusing layout between sectors hold it back.
