‘Value’ is still the buzz word among savvy alpine investors, and if you know where to look it is possible to pick up a good ski pad at a cool price. With Euro and Swiss mortgage rates at record lows, there’s rarely been a better time to buy your own piece of the mountain.

A two-bedroom chalet from CHF375,000.
Blanc views for a snip
