Crans-Montana is Epic!
Ski area
It’s official: following Andermatt, Crans-Montana has now become the next to join the Vail Resorts family. As a result, the world’s biggest mountain tourism group now has roots in Valais and is opening the local slopes to holders of its Epic Pass, which allows sking at 42 ski resorts managed by the company across the world (along with a selection of others through partnerships, like Verbier). When skiing in North America, the pass also gives holders up to 20% off of a wide range of services and insurance-reimbursement in case of injury, job loss or closure of the ski resorts. Note that in Switzerland, the Epic Pass can currently only be purchased online and in advance.
