Zermatt is one of the top ten world resorts in terms of pistes quality.
Here is the highest lift station – Klein Materhorn (3885 m). The mountains in the Zermatt region are quite steep, which determines the peculiar structure of skiing. A great place for “advanced” and expert skiing.

The ski area in Zermatt is divided into three large sectors. The mountain railway, built back in the 19th century, connects Riffelalp (Riffelalp, 2209 m), Riffelberg (Riffelberg, 2582 m) and Gornegrat (Gornegrat, 3100 m). The Alpine metro (Metro Alpin) leads to Sunnegga from Zermatt, then in a spacious car you can climb to the top of Rothorn (3103 m).

On the northern slope of Mount Stockhorn (Stockhorn, 3405 m) is one of the most difficult skiing areas in the Alps, Triftji (Triftji, 2715 m). A series of cable cars through the stations “Furi” (Furi) and “Trockener Steg” (Trockener Steg) raises to the third sector, to the highest mountain station of the Alps – “Klein Matterhorn” (Kl. Matterhorn, 3885 m). There you can cross the border with Italy and test your strength on the highways of Cervinia.

An alternative to downhill skiing in Zermatt is 1.2 km of carving runs, 14.5 km of mogul runs, 10 km of cross-country ski runs at an altitude of 1864 m and 2.5 km of toboggan runs.

Professionals here will be tempted by the difficult virgin pistes that start at the upper stations, and the longest and most difficult black slopes in the Triftja area below the Stockhorn. The Schwarzsee (2583 m) has interesting steep slopes, but they end in a long gentle traverse at Furi.

For more experienced skiers, the Gornergrat and Hohtalli (3286 m) slopes are suitable. In Sunnega there is an excellent 5-kilometer descent Kumme (Kumme), in Klein-Matterhorn – red trails of sufficient difficulty. For less experienced skiers, there are blue runs in Sunegga and Riffelberg, as well as slopes from Klein Matterhorn to Trockener Steg.

For beginners, Zermatt will not be easy: there are no pistes for beginners, and the blue ones are very difficult and dangerous.

On the Theodul Glacier is Gravity Park, the largest snow park in Europe. You can get there by the Furggsattel cable car, which leads to the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise.

Beginners and professionals of snowboarding and freestyle all year round they ride and improve their skills, mastering new tricks and figures.

In winter, guests can expect a 200-meter superpipe, halfpipe, rails, jumps, boardercross, jib lines and much more.

In summer you can ski from 3900 m on the Little Matterhorn to 2900 m at the Trockener Steg. In the warm season, athletes have 15 rails, 7 boxes, 2 small, 5 medium and 3 large jumps, a halfpipe and a few more elements.
