Once you are in La Tzoumaz in residence “Mont Parrain” then you can access Verbier via the TeleCabine which is only 100 metres away. The lift is in operation throughout Winter and for much of Summer too.

In summer it is also possible to drive to Verbier over the Savoleyres mountain in around 25 minutes which provides fantastic views en route. In Winter the drive is still possible in under an hour via Martigny. Of course in winter Verbier is accessable via the lift system.
