We are pleased to announce that Verbier-Summits will be operating from a new premises this summer. We recently acquired a beautiful old building in the heart of the valley. Dating from 1920, this old Swiss watchmakers house has undergone an intensive renovation and has been restored to it’s former glory. We have decided to create self catered apartments so that our guests have the choice to be more independent if they prefer. The apartments vary from one, two and three bedroom homes. By developing individual apartments within this building, we feel that we are now able to offer our clients more privacy for those who wish it but still have the ability to live as a group for those who prefer.

The new building is located in Le Chable, just a 2 minute walk from the cable car and a 10 minute walk from the Montagnier landing field.

Downstairs we have created a beautiful Deli style café which will also be family run and where guests can chose to eat if they do not wish to be self-catered. We hope that the café will be a great place for all our guests to get together and enjoy a cold beer after a good day of flying and some good food.

The renovation of this beautiful hitorical building is still not quite complete so stay tuned for more pictures soon.

Verbier is quite literally the most ideal flying site that I have ever seen to learn to paraglide. We have two perfect training hills, a ridge that reliably works for ridge soaring and two top landing locations. Beginners can start with small hops and rapidly progress to longer flights. Our top to bottom elevation is 4,500ft, so airtime quickly adds up to hours in no time at all and due to our superb micro climate we are able to guarantee that a student can complete an EP COURSE or CP COURSE in just a week.

Learn to paraglide with a registered BHPA paragliding school. We offer begiiner paraglider courses as well as advanced paragliding courses.

This video was made by one of our students, Joe Crabtree, during his 5 day EP paragliding course.
