Crans-Montana

Ski instructor in Crans-Montana

Crans-Montana sits on a plateau at 1,500 metres looking straight across the Rhône valley at the Weisshorn and the Matterhorn beyond. Because it faces south from a terrace rather than sitting in a valley, it gets sun all day through the winter, which is the single reason people choose it over deeper resorts.

It is unusually complete: the ski area above, one of the best-known golf courses in the Alps on the plateau itself, and the Bisse du Ro path along the cliff for hiking. Summer here is as busy as winter, which is rare.

Why private beats group

A group lesson moves at the speed of its slowest member and spends half the morning waiting at the bottom of a lift. A private day is yours: if your problem is one thing — steeps, moguls, a stubborn inside ski — that is what the day is about. Most people who switch never go back.

Lift passes and equipment

Your lift pass is not included and you arrange it yourself, since most people already have one or a season pass. Bring your own skis if you have them. If you need rental, say so when you book and your instructor will point you at the right shop rather than the nearest one.

Common questions

What level do I need to be?

Any. Complete beginners are a normal booking, and so are strong skiers who want to move off-piste safely. Tell us honestly where you are in the notes — it is the single most useful thing you can write there.

Can my children and I share a lesson?

Yes, if you ski at broadly similar levels. If the gap is large, two separate lessons work far better than one compromised one.

What about off-piste?

Off-piste and touring are available with instructors qualified for it, and depend on conditions on the day. Say so when you book so we match you correctly — it is not something to decide on the chairlift.
