Saas-Fee — the 'Pearl of the Alps' — is a car-free village spectacularly surrounded by thirteen peaks over 4,000 metres. The resort offers year-round skiing on the Allalin glacier at 3,600 m, making it a favourite training ground for national ski teams. With 150 km of pistes, Saas-Fee is more intimate than its famous neighbour Zermatt, but delivers equally stunning scenery at a fraction of the price. The village atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with traditional Valais cuisine and a genuine mountain community feel.
