r/Zermatt

Today I got up to the glacier ski area about 10.40 for a hour and 20mins of skiing, there was a thunder storm in Zermatt last night and it rained quite abit, this was snow up high, there was still some soft fresh untracked snow on the slopes, the next few days should be great, it takes about 40 minutes to ride up the Matterhorn glacier express gondola and the Matterhorn ride 2 to the ski area, and then just under a hour to get down in the lifts after the ski area closes at 12pm. I had a nice lasagne lunch at the top at Testa restaurant then came down, I was down at 1.50pm, Jason Wright ski instructor | guide

As a professional ski instructor based in here Zermatt, for last 10 plus years I have traveled to the southern hemisphere to ski coach for the European summer months, but now I am staying here in Zermatt, and what I can tell you is it’s amazing! What we have been doing most days is going up to ski or snowboarding on the glacier early in the morning, usually 8.30- 12pm, but the lift does open at 6.30, this is when the ski racing teams go up. The after ski or snowboarding all morning when coming and have a lunch, so many great options.

Then in the afternoon my favourite and most recommended activity is Moutain E-biking! Is so much fun, with fairly easy roads to ride on.

You can rent them in town, and then take the lift one way up to Sunnegga and then the gondola up to blauheard and ridge all the way across the Moutain to the Riffelberg area and down through Furi, some days we do the amazing 5 lake tours and some we take the Moutain bike flow trails, with turns and small jumps, if you can ride a bike you can do it!

First day back on snow here in Zermatt and the summer ski area is go! With all the at-bats spinning, it’s cool up there a nice break from the heat in town. First like is at 6.30 to go up from town it takes about 40 mins on 2 gondolas, then the slopes close at 12pm you can stet up there and have lunch or direct your ski gear and hike and see the lakes. Today I am going straight back do to town, but the next days I will be skiing and exploring in the afternoon.
