Verbier has taken on a proper deep winter look after a significant spell of snowfall reshaped the mountain. The high bowls above the village are well filled in, the ridgelines around Mont Fort look heavily coated, and the lower slopes feel quieter and more enclosed under fresh snow. There is a settled, mid winter atmosphere around the resort now, and conditions on the mountain feel magical while remaining calm and manageable.
Snow and Weather Summary
Snow depths are now around 210 to 230cm on the upper mountain, with approximately 80 to 100cm in resort. The recent snowfall delivered between 50 and 80cm across the area since last Thursday, with heavier accumulations above 2200m and noticeable wind redistribution in exposed zones. This snowfall has significantly improved coverage and snow quality across the entire ski area, with strong skiing conditions on most pistes at all elevations and soft, supportive snow underfoot. Daytime temperatures at altitude have been ranging between -8 and -4 degrees Celsius, with the freezing level close to 1300m, helping preserve the fresh snow. Winds were strong during the snowfall but have eased, allowing lift operations to run normally. Despite the excellent on piste conditions, the volume and intensity of recent snowfall have resulted in very high avalanche risk, particularly in off piste and uncontrolled terrain where the snowpack remains unstable.
