(4k) LAAX Ski Resort , Flims Laax Falera, Switzerland
Laax Ski Resort
Situated in the Swiss Alps, two hours south-east of Zurich, lies the resort of Flims Laax - a national treasure that was known only to very few outside of Switzerland itself but is now rising fast up the list of favoured ski resorts. Previously known as Flims Laax Falera- the three towns which make up the ski area, the uber cool resort lies between 1,100 and 3,018m above sea level. Crowned with a glacier offering a lengthened ski season, Flims Laax sports an atmosphere of pride and belonging - you get the impression that everyone there belongs there, that they are in fact residents of their special home resort. Not that this makes you feel an outsider, far from it - you feel welcomed. Skiing here makes you feel special, that you are part of the 'secret society' resort.The fact that the resort is predominantly unheard of outside of Switzerland is surprising, considering its credentials. Offering 220km of ski slopes, it is one of Switzerland's largest ski areas and even has three unique snow parks. Coupled with its snow-assured status and outstanding scenery, Flims Laax easily outstrips what most other European resorts can offer. Despite this, Flims Laax remains predominantly a Swiss secret, which means great skiing and extremely short or non-existent lift queues. This comes at the expense, however, of a great nightlife which, during the week, can sometimes fail to match the amazing fun to be had on the slopes during the day.Flims Laax is currently not a destination featured by too many tour operators, a blessing which keeps its awesome atmosphere intact; it is void of pompous skiers who are there just to flash their cash. Owing to its hip atmosphere, there are two high profile snowboarding events which Flims Laax hosts every year - the Brits and the Burton European Open. These events attract those who are 'real' skiers and boarders to the resort, as opposed to those who have merely read about the resort in their ski travel catalogue. As a result of these boarding competitions, Flims Laax attracts a high number of boarders to the resort, to the point where boarders can sometimes outnumber skiers. Far from being something that management or visitors dislike, it is embraced - it lends itself to the 'freestyle' resort that it is. If you are one of those who have a problem with one plank less or more than you have on your feet, then Flims Laax isn't the resort for you. You would only end up spoiling what makes Flims Laax the friendly, pure snow Mecca it is!

Secret Switzerland: Flims/Laax
It's no secret that the best way to get to Switzerland is on Swiss International Airlines which has direct Boeing 777 300ER service from San Francisco and Los Angeles to Zurich.
These new 777s have special features like the largest tv screen in the industry. In business class there is the possibility to get single seats which affords one more privacy, as well as extra space for working, relaxing and sleeping.
From Zurich airport there are direct trains to Chur - the hub from which to explore secret Switzerland. A short ride up the mountain to Flims next to Laax and Falera which combined makes a modern, family friendly ski resort. There is a spectrum of accommodation possibilities the most luxurious is the Wildhaus Flims which has a number of hotels within the resort. The five-star grand hotel dates back to 1877 which reflects its belle époque heritage with elegant modern features.
Friendly, attentive staff provide a sense that anything is possible and elegantly appointed rooms and suites are generous in size. The Presidential Suite is like a private apartment which would rival most luxury apartments on 5th Avenue. The 250 square meter suite on the top floor has unique features like the cinema room, a fully equipped kitchen and dining table for 12 which can come with a chef if requested, several bedrooms and a master bedroom with a panoramic mountain views from all windows and even a private sauna.
The Wildhaus Spa with a fitness room is enormous including treatment rooms, saunas, steam baths, Hammam, as well as indoor and outdoor heated swimming pools. With aquatic neck massagers, bubble loungers and Jacuzzi jets, it offers the tools for total well-being. There is even an earth sauna with a fireplace next to the outdoor pond,
The ski area of Laax and Flims is one of Switzerland’s biggest and has lifts reaching 3000 meters and the glacier. It is also home to one of Europe’s best freestyle terrain parks with an Olympic super-pipe.
In the village of Disentis is the home of Zai skis - considered to be the finest in handmade skis. In the past Zai has done custom skis for Bentley and a pair of Zais can cost between 7 and $10,000 It is because zai is unique and combines wood, granite, carbon fiber and felt = all created from scratch. Zai also produces golf putters and Loro Piana ski clothing.
Meanwhile, back at the Waldhaus… things are cooking up. At the Grand - breakfast, lunch and dinner feature both a la cate selections as well as themed buffets each evening. The seafood buffet, for example, had all the fresh oysters, lobster, crab and tuna a hungry skier could eat. At Epoca - regional specialties are the order. The Grisons area is famous for the air cured beef, Bündnerfleisch … but at Epoca there are other lesser known dishes such as Capuns made with spatzil egg batter, dried meat wrapped in leaves of Swiss chard and often served with a cheese sauce. And don’t forget dessert which involves chocolate in multiple ways from dark mousse to luscious brownies.

Flims - Laax - Switzerland - Travelspots
Flims is a very nice village in the skiing area Laax. The skiing area goes up to 3000m. Therefore it always has enough snow. It is famous for its huge snowpark and has the biggest half pipe in the world. It has a view really nice huts where Grisons specialities are offered.
The slopes are really wide and it`s great to go a bit off-piste.
Flims has a lot more to offer though. There are a lot of winter hiking routes and the famous lake cauma is not only in summer really beautiful.
Also for cross country skiers there is a lot to explore with many possibilities.
The village itself is not as beautiful than other ones, but has a view great Restaurants to go out for dinner, bars and coffes. I`m sure you not gonna get bored!

Rund um den Crap Sogn Gion (Flims-Laax-Falera)
Seit Ende der 60er Jahre ist der Crap Sogn Gion eines der zentralen Drehkreuze im Skigebiet von Laax. Erschlossen durch eine Luftseilbahn und mehrere Schlepplifte ist er gegen Ende der 70er Jahre auch der Ausgangspunkt zum Vorabgletscher, der über ein weites Netz aus Seilbahnen ganzjährig von Laax aus erreichbar ist. Da die Schlepplifte rund um den Crap aber allesamt recht anspruchsvoll sind, fehlt es an einer geeigneten Anlage für weniger geübte Skifahrer. Die erste solche kommt 1984. Und viele weitere werden folgen ...
