Zermatt is a mountain resort that stands majestically in southern Switzerland, in the Canton of Valais. The town, which is located at an altitude of 1620 m, is at the foot of the Matterhorn peak, the famous pyramid-shaped mountain.
It is a completely car-free town, it has kept its original features, in fact it is not a strange thing to see horses and carriages.
Bahnhofstrasse, the main street, is lined with boutiques, hotels and restaurants, and also offers a lively après-ski scene, public outdoor rinks for ice skating and curling.
The ski area offers more than 360 km of slopes, snowboarders and freestylers have access to the Snowpark Zermatt, where Olympic athletes also train.
Those looking for something different can go heli-skiing and push themselves off the prepared slopes in the company of an expert mountain guide, take a ride on a dog sledge or try paragliding.
While retaining a typical welcoming atmosphere, it has developed into a modern fantastic tourist resort for every season of the year. Here you can ski even in summer!
