The picturesque resort is made up of the two villages of Lenzerheide and Valbella situated at either end of the small frozen lake of Heidsee. The sun shines on both sides of the high valley offering over 155 km of perfectly prepared slopes, ideal for beginners and intermediate skiers with blue runs directly back to the village.
There is a wealth of varied skiing well supported by the free local ski bus which ensures efficient movement between the areas. A third of the skiing has the benefit of additional artificial snow keeping the area well covered into the middle of April when the lifts finally close. The attractive lower pistes below the mid-stations are wide runs through wooded areas, where the skiing is excellent. Great off piste and freeride areas along with an impressive range of cross country skiing. The main areas rise up from both sides of Lenzerheide, where the west side up to Piz
Scalottas at 2,323m has the benefit of the morning sun whilst the east slopes up to 2,865m at the Rothorn have the afternoon sun. In this wonderful and varied ski extravaganza it is possible to ski
clockwise right around Lenzerheide and Valbella starting from the lift at Val Sporz and finish back at the Postbus station in Lenzerheide. In no time at all 40 modern transport facilities smooth your way around a wide variety of downhill runs, sunny panoramic terraces and alpine restaurants.
