Saas-Fee has some of the most spectacular scenery anywhere, from
4000m peaks to a range of stunning glaciers. Much of this territory
is shared by its illustrious neighbour, Zermatt. Saas-Fee sits at
1800m, so snow is all but guaranteed. The skiing is not as
challenging as Zermatt's, with most of the runs favouring
intermediates and beginners. Snowboarders will like Saas-Fee with
its excellent school, although it isn't great for middle-ability
boarders.
Many cafes and simple restaurants specialising in traditional fare, such as fondue and raclette. Pizzerias are popular. Most upmarket restaurants tend to be in the 4-star hotels. Possibly the world's highest revolving restaurant (11,510 ft), reached by way of a cable car and the world's highest underground railway.
Daytimes the obvious, skiing and snowboarding. Hiking; dog-sledding, cross-country skiing, ice climbing, tubing, skating, curling, paragliding, hang-gliding, and tobogganing. Ice cave. Arguably the world's largest ice pavilion. Well-equipped fitness/sports centre, offering tennis, swimming, solarium, sauna and whirlpool. The village has its own history museum.
