Chamonix – France<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

\"off-piste<\/a><\/p>\n

Chamonix has, for many years, been the home of big mountain, off-piste skiing in the Alps and this is as true today as it has always been. Whilst all of the Chamonix ski areas have their own, incredible off-piste sectors,\u00a0Les Grands Montets<\/a> is certainly towards the top end with endless exceptionally steep and deep\u00a0off-piste\u00a0powder on glacial terrain.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If an off-piste ski holiday in Chamonix is on your agenda then there is not much of a better base to attack the big lines of Chamonix than from Chalet Infinity<\/a>. Located between La Tour and Argentiere<\/a>, it offers supreme luxury and an epic vista to scope your next itinerary.<\/p>\n

Verbier – Switzerland<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Verbier,<\/a><\/h3>\n

The home of the Verbier Xtreme and a regular, highly renowned stop on the Freeride World Tour<\/a>, Verbier is one of the most renowned and best off-piste ski resorts in the Alps. One of the reasons for it having such a good off piste reputation is the accessibility of the itineraries, as well as the numerous possibilities found over an extensive ski region.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sitting at the bottom of the Medran piste Chalet Agate<\/a> commands a unique ski-in ski-out position along with superb access to the Medran cable cars. The sunny, south-facing balcony is the perfect spot for a couple of after-ski drinks, while the sauna will help revive hardworking muscles ready for another day of fun and adventures in the Verbier backcountry.<\/p>\n

Sainte Foy – France<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

\"off-piste<\/a><\/p>\n

Often overlooked by its shouty neighbours, the quiet off-piste ski resort Sainte Foy can offer some of the best, untracked powder snow in the Alps. Considered by off-piste enthusiasts as Eden, the hidden paradise of powder, but ssshh it\u2019s a secret! \u00a0The 4 chairlifts of the ski resort allow skiers and snowboarders to easily access many itineraries away from crowds. The atmosphere in this little corner guarantees exceptional days for all adventurers.<\/p>\n

\"luxury<\/a><\/p>\n

When it comes to luxury chalets in Sainte Foy, Chalet Marigold<\/a> has it all, and then some. Beautiful rooms, fantastic spa facilities, delicious food and all this only 100 metres from the piste, meaning you’ll be well rested and first in the lift queue on every bluebird powder day.<\/p>\n
