Zermatt summer skiing.
What's available and what it costs.
Summer skiing in
Zermatt is quite an experience. There are, depending upon the
snow and weather conditions up to 20km of skiable slopes under the
Matterhorn. Although these slopes do not offer the greatest
challenge to man or womankind skiers there is a certain thrill to summer
skiing nonetheless. Is it cheap? No, not really but then again neither was
the building of the gondolas and such. Anyhoo, a day pass will set you back
77 CHF and two days will cost you less per day at 116 for a two consecutive
day period. There are, of course, further reductions for longer periods. By
the by the area has a fantastic snowboard area called
Gravity
Park. This has boarding for all
skills and methinks it is included in the pass prices.
Naturally one can get up the mountain
and see the glacier and dine at the restaurant under the
Matterhorn for a bit less. No matter what, Zermatt
in summer has a lot to offer, not just skiers. Watch this space.
