Poster: A snowHead

There is currently no need to quarantine if you come to Switzerland. I've skied a few days here, Zermatt and Saas-Fee are best but you are talking long cruisy reds and blues with limited off-piste.
The lifts to/from the valleys are fairly busy at the start and end of the day and, though mask wearing is compulsory, there is no social distancing on the lifts. Also Valais, the canton in which Saastal and Zermatt are located, has closed all bars and restaurants for a couple of weeks at least except for those catering for hotel guests. In the mountains you can pick up takeaway but you can't use the restaurant balconies. See here.

What is the locals expectations for the next weeks? I can try organize myself a trip for early december , but I am still not confident there will be no changes in the rules a month from now... I have a ticket to Munich which I can rebook.

Here in Verbier we're expecting a pretty normal winter with the exception of mask wearing.
The only constraint on early December skiing may be if it doesn't snow again.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@nicoatridge, nice update on your website. I keep waiting for them to announce they’re closing for November given the Swiss covid stats but saw a post on IG from the Téléverbier chief inviting everyone to Verbier so seems as per Steve they’re expecting to stay open
