Top Ten Luxury Chalets Chalet Tesseln Verbier

Resort: Verbier (Switzerland) the town lies in a sunny, south-facing bowl with spectacular views of the surrounding peaks; it is the largest resort of the “4 Vallées” ski region with over 400km of pistes some of which are challenging and to make life easier, there are off-piste areas accessible by lifts.  A menu of skiing delights can be enjoyed; glaciers, couloirs and deep powder bowls for advanced skiers and riders.  The Savolèyres and Lac des Vaux sectors provide a more limited playground for intermediates and novices with some gentle runs.  Boarders will not be left out as there are the terrain parks with half-pipes and obstacles.
 
Five resorts are tied into one ski pass which offers you one of the largest skiable areas in the Alps, but in practice, few skiers venture beyond the limits of the main Verbier lifts.
Most people come to Verbier for the skiing and boarding challenges it offers, some people find the town attractive, a few areas have an appeal but it through enormous growth it now comprises an endless vista of a suburb of modern, traditionally styled chalets which are obviously attractive individually. If your party’s skiing is solidly at the lower end of intermediate, you would not be accessing the pistes that have all the appeal.  Tackling the notorious Chassoure-Tortin run, which is consistently steep and usually heavily mogulled is a challenge too far for many who may sheepishly regard themselves as ‘advanced’.  My first thoughts at the top were ‘Why no fence?’.  There are other resorts that would still present changes but have a higher percentage of less extreme pistes.  If you are confident you can take on the challenges, you will cherish the memories and return year after year.   
 
Verbier offers a lively après ski culture, distinguished dining, numerous smart cafés and good shopping at the chic designer stores and exclusive boutiques that line its pedestrianised central promenade.
 
chalet: chalet Tesseln.   This chalet occupies an enviable position perched above the Médran lift station and within a 100m. of the piste; a rarity of a ski in, ski out chalet, albeit slightly off piste, in Verbier.
 
The main, high ceilinged open plan living area has a magnificent stone open fireplace with great areas of glazing either side.  The dining area is partly integrated with a semi-partition which works well.
