It's the full experience.

Riders Palace is totally unique, its rugged geography spares no conveniences. Upon arrival, pick up your digital lift pass. Rooms feature Xbox, Beamers, and wireless internet access. The mountain is beyond huge - try eight mile long runs - thigh burners and more off piste skiing then we've ever seen - if you ever wanted to ski or board Europe, this is a the turn key experience you've been waiting for.

Itinerary

Day 1 - Arrive at Zurich International Airport and transfer by train to the Riders Palace at Laax. Trip time is approximately two hours. Arrival is normally in the evening so the first day entails getting settled, having dinner and sleeping off the jet lag. Riders Palace features a cool bar and a club in the basement. If you're ready to party, they are ready for you.

Day 2 – Get up early. Walk to the tram. The mountain is huge so use today to get familiar with the terrain. Explore. Afterward, it's apres-ski, Swiss style.

Day 3 – If your legs are up for it – go again.

Day 4 – You're burning today but there are plenty of bars on the mountain – take advantage of the local sausages and beer – its worth the tram ride.

Day 5 – Explore the backcountry, eat, drink and try the sledding at night from the bar above the hotel... only after a few drinks of course. Can you say Fondu, Schnapps and sledding back to your room? Fun.

Day 6 – Up early and on the train to the airport for the flight home. Arrive in the US the same day.
