Savognin's ski area covers around 80 kilometres of marked runs, almost all of them between 1,200 and 2,713 metres altitude. The terrain is predominantly red (intermediate) and blue (easy), with some black runs on the steeper upper sections. The snow record is decent — the village sits at 1,200 metres and the upper slopes reach above 2,700 — and lift queues are rarely a problem outside of school holidays.
The main access point is a gondola from the village, followed by a network of chairlifts and drag lifts. The area suits intermediate skiers well and is genuinely family-friendly. It has none of the glitz of the Engadin resorts to the south, which is either a selling point or a drawback depending on what you are looking for.
Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails follow the valley floor and the forests around the village. Rental equipment is available in town.
