LAAX, Switzerland
Freestyle lives here.
LAAX is one of Switzerland’s most progressive ski destinations, combining extensive high-altitude terrain with a freestyle scene that has become central to its identity. The mountain stretches from 1,100m to 3,018m, with around 70% of the skiing above 2,000m, so there is plenty here beyond the parks, including blues, reds and blacks for a broad range of abilities. What really makes LAAX different is its five snowparks, two halfpipes and the world’s largest halfpipe, alongside a contemporary resort atmosphere that feels noticeably younger and more energetic than many traditional Swiss destinations.
