Preparing forecast graphs…

Times and values match the detailed forecast. Tap or point at a value for details. Scroll each chart sideways for later days. Rain / precipitation is the total water equivalent per forecast interval, including snow; snowfall is fresh snow per interval, not snow depth.

GFS and ECMWF model comparison. Each model retains its own forecast times and horizon. Precipitation and snowfall amounts cover their own forecast intervals; these can differ between models.

Crans Montana — Bella Lui ski run. Photo: Denise Hastert. Archive image; resized. Source · CC BY-SA 4.0

Crans Montana's skiing is divided into three areas that are all lift linked together by five gondolas accessed from different points in the resort. The largest area is the Cry d'Err ski area and the second largest is the Violetted area where you can find some of the toughest runs in the resort. The third largest area is the Aminona ski area which is located above the Aminona resort centre.

In Crans-Montana, you can ski at altitudes ranging from 1500 right up to the glacier at 3000m. The ski area includes 28 ski lifts – amongst them, the brand new "Nationale Express" chairlift. The area extends over 140 km of marked pistes, a third of which can be covered with artificial snow, so a great ski season is guaranteed in this region which is among the sunniest in Valais.
