Savognin

Family-friendly excellence defines Savognin's 80km of meticulously maintained terrain across the eastern slopes of the Surses Valley. This well-designed ski area balances extensive beginner and intermediate zones with several challenging black runs, creating natural progression opportunities for developing skiers. The area's standout feature is Switzerland's longest children's slope—a 5km adventure run incorporating fun elements throughout its considerable length. Beyond groomed terrain, Savognin offers excellent freeride options on its upper sectors, while maintaining a reputation for value and authenticity that attracts discerning Swiss families seeking quality skiing without international crowds or pricing.

Strategic modernization has transformed Savognin's lift system, with 13 installations now efficiently serving the mountain's varied terrain. The replacement of older facilities with modern chairlifts and surface lifts maintains the area's family-friendly character while significantly improving uphill capacity. With vertical drops approaching 1,500m, the lift network provides access to diverse skiing zones across multiple faces of the mountain. Families particularly appreciate the thoughtful design connecting learning areas with progression zones, allowing skill development without intimidating transitions between sectors in this remarkably cohesive ski area.
