What Skiers Say About Nendaz

Nendaz is reviewed primarily by intermediate to advanced skiers who value its position within the 4 Vallées ski area, providing access to Verbier and extensive off-piste terrain. Users consistently note quieter slopes, good snow retention, and reasonable value compared to neighbouring Verbier. The resort is frequently described as family-friendly with limited nightlife and après-ski options. Several reviewers mention connectivity challenges for beginners due to red and black runs being the only routes in and out of the resort. Advanced skiers and off-piste enthusiasts appreciate the terrain variety, while those seeking lively evening entertainment report limited options.

We love Nendaz. Super friendly people, brilliant off piste and great apres. A better value for money option than verbier.

Most of the on-piste benefits of Verbier without the crowds if you can forego Brit dominated apres choices.

I've been to Nendaz about a dozen times over the last 10 years. It's a great little (albeit growing) family friendly resort with access to the amazing Swiss 4 valleys ski area - Verbier, Siviez, Veysonnez and Nendaz.
The links from Nendaz take a little time to get into the main area but once you are there the links and lifts are great.
There are some excellent mogul fields and iteneraire runs, Vallon D'arbe for example as well as a good range of beginner and intermediate runs.
Nendaz is a lot quieter then other resorts and more family friendly but not a lot in the way of lively Apres ski.

My husband was a snowboarder and decided to try skiing the ski instructor wasn't very good. The drinks were quite expensive and the apres ski bars weren't as lively. The views were amazing and hotel was incredible. Nightlife isn't the best

Nendaz was the first resort I ever skid, which as a complete beginner on day 1 significantly limits the skiable area of the wider 4 valley resort due to being locked by one tricky, steep red. Once youre competent to ski reds the wider resort is fantastic with links across to Siviez and Verbier which offer fantastic skiing, and for advanced skiers the infamous Mont Fort presents a very tricky run. That being said, if you are completely new and are content skiing the same 3-4 blues then this is a great beginner resort and excellent for kids. Apre was varied but ended quite early, with on slope bars being quite traditional. The town itself is nice and reasonable value with a good array of options for accommodation. The Hotel Nendaz 4 Vallees and Spa was lovely, but there are lots of cheaper ski in/out apartments for lower budgets.

Great off piste yellow runs for skiers and advanced snowboarrders. If you struggle with right turns and up and downs off piste, dont take the yellow runs.
Great lifts with overall below average queues.
Great restaurants at the top of lifts.

Great value way to experience the epic off piste areas of Verbier with slightly less cost. Easy to get to from Geneva airport with the trains as well (& a bus at the end). For advanced skiers the best bit is the ski routes imo

Nendaz is an amazing resort. It sits in a bowl that always gets snow, keeps snow, and is just the right amount of cold.
With some big back country and easy ski-in access to Verbier, Nendaz is something of a hidden gem of Swiss ski resorts.
Thankfully, not everyone knows about it and can be a good haven for families not wanting the buzz of Verbier, but the challenge and snow of the region.

Nendaz is great for particularly young families as the main lift brings one to a small open area with gentle slopes where beginner and small child lessons may be overlooked from the Restaurent or bar, but leaving them to the instructors there is challenging skiing only minutes away. Indeed one can rapidly ski into the centre of the 4 valleys ski area with excellent piste and off piste options.

Specifically on the mountain of Siviez, the runs were groomed but beyond midday became icey (especially the blue run). Red and black runs were great fun and offered plenty of powder. Apres was quiet and more of a restaurant vibe with expensive beer. Early in the season slopes were very quiet and if you waited until late afternoon just prior to lifts closing you would have some empty slopes. All in all enjoyed my time in Nendaz.

Have been going back to this resort for the last 20 years. Can honestly say that it has some of the best skiing and terrain the alps has to offer. Up to 3330m of Mont fort and the backside of it leading to the haute route or the lac de clueson hydro-dam.

Combined with the 4 valleys ski area over to verbier the rest of the alps cant compete. Nendaz particularly has a multitude of restaurants that are both family friendly and a lovely night out. There is also a brilliant mix of on slope apres-ski and in town bars and pubs that have a late night life.

As a ski instructor fresh out of the season, I can say that Nendaz has something for everyone. For people who like distance, Nendaz is part of the 4 Valleys, giving you 410km of ski area, connected to its more famous Verbier as well as 5 other resorts; the largest ski area in Switzerland. Nendaz would be slightly cheaper for accommodation and have slightly smaller queues in peak weeks. Its got a good beginner area - although you have to walk down some steps, and the apres scene is daily for seasonaires and livens up in the peak weeks. If you like touring, theres loads to offer on a pow day. It does however need better connections to Siviez for beginner-intermediates as the only way out of Nendaz is a red, and the only way back is a black - or downloading the gondola.

Been skiing the 4vallees while staying in Nendaz for over 10 years. My mates and I love the town. Its not mental but its great fun. Great restaurants and bars. The ski area is vast with a great lift network. Plenty of good on and off slope skiing. The mighty Mont Fort is great. Some good yellows with Chassuoure Tortin. And you can ski down into Verbier if you have a few grand spare for a beer.

A family friendly resort with lots of blues to learn. Links to Verbier and the 4 Vallees gives more technical skiers access to a huge range of ski options from difficult blacks, various intineraires, mogul fields, and off piste options. Good ski links to the 4 vallees and Verbier allow less experienced skiers to still ski the whole region with more reliance on lifts. Après and nightlife is a little lacking though.

Linked to the best ski area in Switzerland and a much more affordable place to stay to be able to access resorts like Verbier
