Acting as a gateway to Les 4 Vallees, Verbier is connected to the slopes of Thyon, Nendaz, Veysonnaz, and other small resorts, giving access to around 410 km of pistes as well as some of the best off-piste skiing in the world. The resort has a superb lift system and one of the best snow records in the Alps with good snow-making facilities on the lower slopes. Although a paradise for experts and free riders, Verbier also caters for beginners with nursery slopes Les Moulins and Les Esserts close to the centre of the village, and there are a number of intermediate runs between Attelas and the village.
