Best of the Alps

One of the greatest mountain ranges in Europe, if not the world, the Alps stretch magnificently across eight countries. From Austria and Slovenia in the east, France, Germany, Liechtenstein and Switzerland to the west and Italy and Monaco to the south, these natural wonders, at a staggering 1,200km in length, have long been the favourite playground of the rich and famous, thrillseekers and sports enthusiasts, and lovers of incomparable beauty.
 
Best of the Alps is an organisation dedicated to promoting the uniqueness of this sublime destination. In both summer and winter, the Alps provide visitors with innumerable opportunities to enjoy first class sporting facilities and indulge in luxurious lifestyles; Best of the Alps is not simply synonymous with sport, events and tourism – it also represents a way of life.

The Best of the Alps Golf Cup 
 
Whilst the Alps are no doubt best synonymous with winter sports, they provide a myriad of other sporting opportunities throughout the year, and Best of the Alps strive to highlight the full potential of the region.
 
Few might realise that alongside sublime off-piste tracks and thrilling snowboarding runs, the Alps is a leading European destination for golf. There are countless resorts that boast internationally acclaimed courses which, when added to the unrivalled scenery, create unequalled experiences for players. Best of Alps have recognised these amazing conditions and so set out to share the Alps’ best kept secret with the world.

Golfers of all handicaps are invited to show off their skills, and the lure of a number of lucrative prizes will surely guarantee an extremely special experience.
 
The Best of the Alps Classic Rally 
 
The meandering roads that wind through the Alps are any car lover’s dream. Pair that with the simplistic beauty and vintage charm of classic cars and you have an event that exudes class, encompasses natural beauty and is enveloped in thrilling experiences.
 
Every summer, the Best of the Alps organise a classic car rally that sees enthusiastic drivers traverse a mountainous route through five of the countries that border the Alps; starting in the beautiful ski resort of Chamonix, the long and lazy roads will take drivers to Davos.
