Verbier town is full of Alpine charm and is a great place to spend a whole or part of a season. The resort is based around Place Centrale and there's a great variety of shops and restaurants for entertainment. Après is big in Verbier and no matter where you are there are always plenty of bars and cafes to suit all budgets, loud or quiet to start and finish the evening. The world-famous Verbier night-life of Casbah, the new and hugely popular Coco Club, T-Bar and L'Atelier are just waiting to be discovered. There are many well stocked shops selling mountain bike gear and spares. 

The Sports Center in Verbier is a 5 minute walk from all of our accommodation and encorporates a swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi and ice hockey rink. (It's worth checking out the timetable to go and watch one of the local teams playing in the evenings). 

There are also numerous other activities in Verbier to keep you amused during your days off from riding.  High Alpine hikes, Golf, Tennis, Horse Riding, Rafting and even skiing on the Glacier are just some of the possibilities available to you.  For a more relaxing day out, there's the opportunity to go to Lavey-les-Bains, a thermal pools about 20 mins in the car from Verbier, perfect for easing those aching muscles after a hard weeks' riding!
