Why Zermatt?
Zermatt is romantic, traditional and has some of the finest terrain in Switzerland for intermediate and advanced skiers & boarders. Nestled in a deep valley enclosed between steeply scarped mountains, Zermatt is dominated by the huge and gracefully curved pyramid of the Matterhorn. From the moment you arrive and catch sight of the cobbled streets and horses with sleighs patiently waiting for their rides, you know you are in a special place. Visitors are spoilt for choice with a variety of options, most notably a run down to Cervinia in Italy. Zermatt is car free, except for the electric carts and taxis and the village offers a choice of more than thirty restaurants consistently of high standards. The aprés ski scene is lively and friendly.
