Ski holidays Davos

Beginner skiing in Davos ***

Davos is not thought of as being the perfect resort for beginner skiers it is a bit disjointed which can be off putting for people who have never skied before. However, if you do find yourself in Davos in search of the beginner skiing that they have on offer then do not fear. Ski school for beginners either takes place at Bunda (Davos Dorf) or Bolgen (Davod Platz) depending on which side of the town you are staying in and once you have mastered a few skills on the nursery slope there are plenty of harder blue runs for you to progress onto towards the end of your trip.

Intermediate skiing in Davos *****

The intermediate skiing in Davos is a dream. Intermediates will love the pistes in offer in both Davos and Klosters and there is so much variety that you will never get board. Almost 85% of the pistes in the area are classed as blue and red runs so you will very rarely find yourself faced with a black run and no other way down. In total there is 320km of piste that is covers on the lift pass and given that there are five separate ski areas to explore you can find yourself having completely different pistes and completely different scenery day after day.

Advanced skiing in Davos*****

Advanced skiers whole regularly book their skiing holidays in Davos will know that hit is all about the off piste. There is a good chunk of black runs to keep you happy and the longest pisted run is the area is a challenging 12km, but if you are lucky enough to get a fresh snow fall when you are out there then the off piste will be too tempting to turn down. You can ski for hours off piste and feel as though you are in the middle of nowhere and still get home. See our off piste section below.

Snowboard holidays in Davos / Freestyle skiing*****

The snowboarding in Davos is awesome and Davos is well known as being on the of the best resorts in Switzerland for snowboarders and freestyle skiers. So much so that back in the early 90's they opened up a bar and hotel specifically aimed at snowboarders. The park on Jakobshorn is always well maintained and they have two half pipes, one of which is located at the foot of Jakobshorn next to the town and was the location of the O'Neil Evolution 6*TTR event since 2006 - 2014. Both pipes are kept on great condition. However, Davos is not just about big air exhilaration, it is also massively about off piste. Our off piste section below will give you a bit more details but the amount if off piste on off in Davos in incredible.

Off piste skiing in Davos *****

Me of the major appeals off Davos to skiers from all over the world is the amount of piste piste skiing in Davos. There is absolutely loads to be found. Not only is there loads of off piste skiing to be found on the a Davos side but there is even more on the Klosters side. They have a good record for snow fall in Davos / Klosters and it is one of those resorts where you can still find fresh tracks days after a recent snow fall. This is great for holidays makers meaning that you can still get fresh lines even if you are not lucky enough for it to snow whilst you are actually on holiday.

Another big draw is that way that the area is linked up by the mountain railway. You can ski for hours on end and feel completely lost in the wilderness only to find that when you hit the valley floor you find yourself just as stones throw away from one of the mountain railway stops which will take you straight back into Davos. However, it is highly recommended to book a guide because this is not always the case and the last thing that you want is a serious trek to get home.
