Lauchernalp – Lötschental lies in Valais and is a small, family-run ski area: 33 kilometres of piste served by 7 lifts.

The area runs from 1420 to 3111 metres above sea level, giving around 1,691 metres of vertical. That takes the terrain above the 3,000-metre mark, which markedly improves snow reliability on the upper slopes.

The season usually runs Dec – April.

An adult day pass costs around CHF 62.

Of note: Freeride arena high above the Lötschental
