Overview

Nendaz is located in the Valais region of Switzerland and is linked by ski lift to Verbier. It is a great ski resort for families. For more information on the resort itself we suggest you look at the excellent website of the Tourist Office www.nendaz.ch. You can also see more by reading this brochure.

Families Welcome

Nendaz has benefited from the "Families Welcome" label for 15 years now. Our region is among the 23 destinations in Switzerland to be awarded the "Families Welcome" label by the Swiss Tourism Federation. This label represents a holiday philosophy and is a guarantee that the resort caters efficiently and adequately to families. In certain hotels and restaurants, you can find areas specially designed with children in mind.

Plenty of winter activities and services: the ice rink, Ice disco, sledging, snowtubing, trampoline, treasure hunts, a day care centre for children between months to 6 years, playgrounds, games library.
