Haute Nendaz Ski Resort Guide
Haute Nendaz Ski Resort Guide
Haute Nendaz is a quiet, unassuming resort that is located within the four valleys mega resort in Switzerland. This large, connected ski area includes the resort of Verbier, famed for having some of the best, and most extensive, off-piste in Europe. There are over 400km of piste to be explored and these are divided almost equally over the ability scale. One draw back is that skiing out from Haute Nendaz can be a pain as you seem to spend a lot of time on lifts before reaching one of the larger ski centers. This is easily over-come if you have transport and can make the short drive to one of the other resorts or take the bus to Siviez. Off the slopes at Haute Nendaz, the resort is quite big, but has largely been ignored by the main ski holiday companies. There are enough restaurants and bars and the town is lively without being rowdy. Overall, Haute Nendaz is one of the cheapest resorts in the four valley complex, but you may have to bus it to get easy access to the slopes.

Visitor Reviews of Haute Nendaz
Bevan Guy and Family - England from United Kingdom writes:
We have just returned after our 3rd visit to Nendaz, thanks to some very good people letting us have the use of their amazing apartment, the views, accommodation were outstanding. We were there for 7 nights and during this time we spent a lot of time in Siviez where the skiing and scenery was amazing. We also spent time at the wood park in Nendaz(tracouet) which was also excellent.
There was plenty of snow, however, this did not seem to have any impact on the transport systems etc they just get on with life, the Swiss people do not let any issues bother them, not like in England. 25 mm of snow and the country comes to a stand still.
We actually were confronted every day with at 250mm(10") and the public transport system still operated successfully, it was amazing to see how everyone mucked in and coped with the heavy snowfalls.
We have 2 children who came with us 6+12 and they also had an amazing time with the sledging, skiing and general Swiss way of life. This is what is important for any child having the freedom to enjoy such quality life and also being able to remember this later on in life.
We would also like to thank personally the people who own the apartment as it is fantastic/outstanding accommodation and hopefully we will return next year to carry on with our unforgotten time we had in such a lovely resort, which will hold memories for such a long time.
Thank you again for letting our family use your dream apartment, it is beautiful with outstanding views.
