Why this choice? Located only 90 minutes from Geneva, Champéry represents a typically Swiss postcard for its preserved architecture, its authenticity but above all for its rich and green nature in the mild seasons. The multi-hundred-year-old village nestled at the bottom of a valley is placed on a plateau covered with meadows and backed by wooded walls facing south-east. Champéry is located at 1050m, ideal altitude, the air is pure and light and remarkably calm thanks to the belt of high peaks which surrounds it and protects it from the north winds or the north wind. Its so-called Lombard climate is temperate, often swept by hot winds in summer, hence the existence of an exceptional flora with very rare Mediterranean species. Champéry lives all year round to the rhythm of the seasons and each of them has its strengths. One of the great privileges of the resort remains undoubtedly its belonging to the Portes du Soleil, incredible skiing without borders between Switzerland and France. 650 km of slopes, 200 ski lifts, 90 mountain restaurants will delight winter sports enthusiasts. Apart from skiing, Champéry can boast of having one of the only National Ice Centers in Switzerland open to everyone except on days reserved for training and / or international competitions which take place throughout the year.
