✍️ Our take on Zürs

Zürs is one of the few resorts offering more than 300 km of pistes – a colossal ski area that even the fastest skiers wouldn't cover in a week. With 85 lifts and 0 pistes listed, it's a destination that can absorb all the tourist flows without ever feeling crowded. Zürs's character is upmarket: its accommodation, high-altitude restaurants and resort services reflect a clientele that doesn't count the cost. With a day lift pass at €82, the stay comes at a price, but the experience lives up to it for those who want to treat themselves without compromise. With a summit at 2,811 m and a village at 1,717 m, Zürs's snow cover is generally reliable from January to the end of March. A few exceptionally mild winters can cause tension early in the season, but the situation recovers quickly once serious snowfalls arrive. The budget for a stay in Zürs is clearly high: €82 for a day lift pass, plus accommodation and high-altitude restaurants among the most expensive in the Alps. It's the price of excellence – but be aware of it before you set off. In short: Zürs isn't for everyone, but for those who can afford it, it's probably one of the best skiing experiences in Europe.
