Get to know Crans-Montana Ski Resort

Crans-Montana, a jewel in the Swiss Alps, has been drawing visitors since 1893 when the first hotel opened on its sun-drenched plateau. Once a haven for tuberculosis patients seeking mountain air, it quickly evolved into a playground for the elite. The resort’s transformation accelerated with Switzerland’s longest funicular in 1911 and its first ski lift in 1928.

Today, Crans-Montana offers 140 km of pistes, including the Plaine Morte Glacier, reaching 2,927 metres. But it’s not just about winter sports – the resort boasts four golf courses and hosts the prestigious Omega European Masters.

From Katherine Mansfield, who dubbed it the “Pearl of the Alps,” to modern jet-setters, Crans-Montana has long captivated visitors. Recent investments, including the Six Senses Resort, ensure this historic destination continues to blend Alpine charm with luxury, offering year-round appeal for those seeking mountain magic.
