Little-known outside of Switzerland, the Aletsch Arena is a total delight with a great range of skiing, a fabulous long run from the Eggishorn, child-friendly facilities, good rail links and stunning views – including the best views over the Aletsch glacier. I’m not going to give too much away, because I really don’t want everyone else descending on this delightful, sunny range, but I come back again, and again.
