If you\u2019re planning a ski holiday to Verbier<\/a> this winter, you\u2019re in for an alpine escape that mixes world-class terrain, high-end comfort and freshly upgraded infrastructure. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about what\u2019s new and what makes Verbier a top pick for luxury travellers in the 2025\/26 season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Heights of Skiing Infrastructure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Farewell to a Legend<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This season marks the final winter for Switzerland\u2019s oldest operating gondola, dating back to 1970. The Verbier-Savoleyres cable car is an icon, but its long-awaited replacement signifies Verbier’s committment to skier comfort, mountain accessibility and efficiency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original cars will be auctioned in summer 2026, making this your last chance to ride an iconic piece of alpine history before it\u2019s gone. It’s replacement, the Les Esserts-Savoleyres T\u00e9l\u00e9mixte is partially operational this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brand New Les Esserts-Savoleyres T\u00e9l\u00e9mixte<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In November 2024 construction began on the new t\u00e9l\u00e9mixte lift<\/a> (a lift that carries both chairlifts and gondola cars – similar to the La Chaux Express), to create a seamless connection between Verbier and La Tzoumaz in the 4 Vall\u00e9es.<\/a> The first phase of this innovative hybrid lift opens this winter, offering a more efficient link from Les Planards to Savoleyres. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With 6-seater chairs and 10-seater cabins, when the full system is complete, it will carry 1,675 skiers every hour and give guests a faster, smoother ride to more varied terrain during ski holidays to Verbier this winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speeding up the Lac II Chairlift<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This winter, Verbier is also replacing the two-seater Lac II chair with a new high-speed six-person chairlift. This will improve flow between Lac des Vaux and Col de Chassoure, a vital route for those seeking Verbier\u2019s legendary freeride terrain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The improved journey time will be 5 minutes, and capacity will increase from 1,200 people to up to 2,000 people per hour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Culinary Highlights<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

La Table Verbier<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The latest venture from renowned chefs Pierre-Jean and Tibo, La Table Verbier<\/a> opens next to the Esserts piste. It’s perfectly positioned for long ski-in lunches or apr\u00e8s-ski dinners. With a focus on authenticity, conviviality and top-tier ingredients, it\u2019s tipped to become Verbier\u2019s must-visit dining address this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le Chaman<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A new brasserie-style restaurant opening for winter 2025\/26, Le Chaman<\/a> offers a relaxed yet refined setting with local, seasonal flavours elevated into gourmet plates. Expect creative combinations, mountain comfort food reimagined, and a warm, stylish atmosphere that captures the spirit of Verbier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improved Access All Winter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to excellent early season snow, the Verbier ski area<\/a> partially opened on 1st November 2025, allowing for ski weekends before the main season opening on 6th December 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This season also sees improved benefits for Epic Pass<\/a> holders skiing the 4 Vall\u00e9es. On a ski holiday to Verbier this winter, Epic Pass holders can enjoy 5 consecutive days of unrestricted skiing across the entire 4 Vall\u00e9es ski area with it’s 410km of pistes and world-class back-country terrain, encompassing 6 resorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
