Swiss Escape is located in the charming village of Grimentz, a French speaking village located in the Swiss Alps at 1500 meters. With only 2.5 hours by public transportation from Geneva airport, you are in the heart of the majestic mountains. Swiss Escape is located in the heart of the village, less than 5 mins walk to supermarkets, restaurants, bars, sports rentals and the ski station.

Swiss Escape is easily reachable by public transportation from Geneva, Zurich and Milan airports in less than 3 hours.

By plane: The closest airport is Geneva. Then it is about 2 hours by car, or 2.5 hours by public transportation.

By train and bus: We advise you to take a train from the airport until Sierre. Trains to Sierre run every half an hour from Geneva and Zurich airports. From Sierre, take a bus until Grimentz télécabine. Timetable for the train and bus can be found here.

If you travel by bus, beware that the last bus from Sierre leaves around 7pm. Make sure you check out the timetable before you travel.

We are located 2 minutes walking distance from the gondola.

There are two supermarkets in the vicinity. One is a national chain of supermarkets called Coop where you can find everything that you would expect in a grocery store. Another option is the local supermarket called Au Marché Villageois where you can find more local products like meat and cheese. There are also bakeries and a butchery close by.

All shops are within 5 minutes walking distance from Swiss Escape.

Swiss Escape offers a variety of activities including skiing and snowboarding in winter, and hiking and mountain biking in summer. We also have weekly communal events and workshops to help you connect with other colivers.

Discounted Ski Pass: Pre-book your season pass starting from only €350. It gives you access to over 30 ski resorts in Switzerland. The price of the pass increases as you get closer to winter. Current Offer

Ski passes vary depending on how long and how often you want to hit the slopes. Have a look at the prices on their website. Moreover, if you plan to ski for at least 2 weeks in winter, we would highly recommend you to buy the Magic Pass. Magic Pass is valid for the whole season and gives you unlimited access to many ski resorts across Switzerland.

Note: The price of Magic Pass increases every month as we get closer to winter. To take full advantage, try purchasing it before September.

You can also look at ski rental prices and take private ski classes.

Most definitely. And yes, the classes can be in English, French or German.

You can have a glimpse at the prices here.

We organize social and business events every week.

Social events:

• Game night
• Movie night
• Swiss dinners

Business events:

• Workshops
• Open discussions
• Talks

Needless to say that colivers are also welcomed to organize their own events like excursions, day hikes or ski days.

Grimentz is a winter wonderland as soon as the snow begins to fall. The village turns into a beautiful ski/snowboard destination and you will regularly see people hanging out at après-ski bars.

Additionally, aside from enjoying the slopes, we often organize fondue or raclette evenings.

Summer in the Alps is always pleasant with average temperatures ranging between 18 and 25 degrees Celsius.

You can of course go hiking and mountain biking but also take advantage of exploring culture through local festivals and wine-tasting events.

In a restaurant, you can expect these prices:

Our space is intended for freelancers, remote workers or business owners who can work remotely and are looking for a community of like-minded people. We regularly organise activities. From workshops and business-related talks, to social dinners and movie nights, to ski/hiking days, we aim to create an unforgettable experience alongside people who share the same lifestyle.

Coliving means that you will share your living space with others. You can expect 4 other people maximum in the same house as yours. In practice, you are going to share the coworking space, the living room, the kitchen, and the bathroom.

Additionally, house managers/hosts are always around to take care of the shared spaces, answer any questions you have and help you settle down.

We have guests from all over the world. We host entrepreneurs, freelancers and remote workers working in different industries. They all have one thing in common: they come with a brilliant story and are open to learn from others.

We have an on-site community manager who welcomes all our guests. The community manager co-creates events and activities for the guests. Yes, they are living in the house.

Because we know the importance of a well-functioning community, we have a dedicated team member onsite to facilitate the interactions between our guests as well as organize weekly events. Their role is to support you in getting accustomed to the house and its surroundings. Most importantly, their goal is to make sure you spend an incredible time with us.

Swiss Escape is also a space where creative ideas are born, new partnerships are built and knowledge is shared. Workshops and masterminds are curated based on the skills and knowledge of our guests. You get to enjoy the panoramic view of the Alps right from the comfort of your desk.

Grimentz is a quiet and cute village in the mountains. It's the perfect place to recharge your batteries after extensive travel or intense times.

Within our chalets, we are productive and enjoy days of work.

We strive to create an experience that combines the intimacy of the houses—welcoming colivers from 3 to 12 people—with the serene and relaxing mountain atmosphere, all while being located just a 3-minute walk from the cable cars.

If you're looking for a party destination, this is NOT the right experience for you.

Anything and everything. The chalet is built and furnished with locally sourced products from the region, so don't be surprised if you come across a Swiss flag on a potato peeler ;)

We occasionally host Swiss fondue or raclette nights. The Valais region (where Grimentz is located) happens to be the largest wine-producing area in Switzerland. Let us share a little secret with you: Swiss wine is not widely exported, making this an exclusive opportunity to try it.

Moreover, Fanny, our co-founder, grew up around Grimentz so that is the ultimate Swissness we bring.

The shared room has twin beds, meaning only two people stay in that room. Each person has their own wardrobe to store their personal belongings.

Kids are so much fun to be around and have much to teach us. Unfortunately, we are not able to cater for them at Swiss Escape due to lack of space/facility and the focus that we have chosen to put on coworking and providing a space for deep work and productivity.

Although we love our furry friends, pets are unfortunately not allowed at Swiss Escape.
