With the neighbouring resorts of Thyon, Veysonnaz, and Nendaz, Verbier forms part of the vast 4 Vallées ski area. The four resorts are linked by lifts with electronic passes to provide a total of 412 km of ski slopes and 95 different lifts, with the longest single run an astonishing 31km. The highest point in the region is the Mont-Fort at 3330m which forms part of the local Verbier area.
 
Verbier’s ski season normally runs from mid-December to the end of April. Resort altitude ranges from 1500m to 3300m (the summit of the Mont-Fort glacier) where the views are simply breathtaking.
