Zermatt is een prachtige wintersportplaats! Een super skigebied met veel mooie rode pistes (ook wat blauwe voor de minder geoefende skiërs) en prachtige vergezichten! Het gezellige dorp heeft mooie winkels, heerlijke restaurants en een super uitstraling. Après-ski doe je vooral op de dalafdalingen naar het dorp. In het dorp zijn wel wat leuke tentjes maar daar ga je niet snel in skikleding naar toe. Matterhorn skiparadise en de doorsteek naar Breuil-Cervinia zijn geweldig! Voor goed eten en heerlijke ligbanken op de piste ga je naar Chez Vrony in Findeln bij Sunnega Paradise. Zermatt is absoluut een aanrader voor een fantastische wintersportvakantie (neem wel je portemonnee mee want

Spent a week in Zermatt with 2 other experienced skiers and 3 beginners. Everybody had a great time. Beginners did lessons with Summit ski school, they were very professional. I thought the ski safari was amazing and is totally worth attempting. Attempted it twice in the week but only completed once. The black run from Schwarzee to Furi and the red run from Rathorn to Gant were my two favourites. I think I spend less then a minute queuing all week and most of that was at the bar. The expensive lift pass is completely worth it. Really enjoyed the nightlife too, T-bar all the way... Definitely the best ski holiday I've been on... Zermatt has a reputation for being very expensive but coming fro

January 16, 2007 - 01:46 PM Jon Jones from UNITED KINGDOM Just spent a week in the chalet Mazot in Zermatt with Inghams. Hosts and accommodation was very good, as was the food. Only small criticism was that the dinning room is a little cramped and there is no lounge. Zermatt is very pretty, with a good night life, shops and restaurants. Its a little hard to get between the runs i.e. expect to do some walking and short (5min) buses rides. Skiing was good. Zermatt runs are a little more rough and ready and not really suited to beginners. Cervinia has better grooming, but it takes around 2 hours to get there by lifts so allow plenty of time to get back or you will be stuck with a 3 hour taxi j

Zermatt is unlike any other resort. it is elegant, traditional, romantic and full of postcard-scenery. excellent skiing if your are at an intermediate level at least. skiing isnt vast. it does get very cold when the wind is blowing, so be prepared for it. good food on the mountain - but certainly not cheap - nor is the lift pass.
