Visitor Reviews of Champéry

alun evans from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

visited Champery for a day this Easter..lovely little resort.the skiing looked good but unfortunatly we ended up in Champery hospital after 2 hours..my mate fell from the top of the run called the Swiss Wall and because the mountain was so icy, he tumbled 800 metres down the mountain from top to bottom and was lucky to be alive. Don't let this put you off as the run was absolutely bonkers and icy and also my mate his crazy too. So just beware of skiing the Swiss Wall in icy conditions because if you do tumble there's only 1 way down,THAT BEING DOWN FAST WITH ALOT OF BUMPS. All jokes aside he was very lucky and I would like to warn the rest of you. Apart from that, Champery looked ok and I would visit there when passing through again.
