Dear Citizens,

With the tallest mountains in Switzerland, the most hours of sunshine in Europe, guaranteed snow on the slopes, the eternal ice of the glaciers, the world’s high-est underground train, highest revolving restaurant and largest ice grotto, the Free Republic of Holidays Saas-Fee offers its citizens more of everything.

Plenty of fantastic new discounts, free services and great deals are lined up for winter 2015/2016, when the beautiful Saas Valley raises the bar even higher when it comes to fun and savings! The much-loved Citizens’ Pass alone provides a long list of saving opportunities guaranteed to keep everyone happy. Enjoy cheaper skiing than last year, for example, with a whole ten percent off 2015/16 ski passes, plus many more discounts ranging from 10 to 100 percent, such as free participation in the Adrenaline Cup and half- price night sledging. Guests receive the Citizens’ Pass from their very first night’s stay, and can also use it to travel free of charge on the PostAuto buses.

More snow. More fun. More value for money.

Welcome to the Free Republic of Holidays!The Department of Relaxation

Pascal Schär, CEO Saastal Marketing AG
