Wintry conditions prevail all year round on the Theodul Glacier above Zermatt. Early risers can ski and snowboard until midday even in the height of summer. Europe’s highest and biggest glacier ski area has up to 21 pistes to enjoy. And freestyle fans also have something to look forward to as the Summer Snow Park on Plateau Rosa is one of the highest freestyle areas in the Alps.
Do you have a deep desire to go skiing? Take the gondola from Zermatt to the Klein Matterhorn at 3,883 m via Furi and Trockener Steg. There, it is time to step into your bindings and enjoy snow sports along 21 km of pistes. Zermatt – Matterhorn offers the largest and highest altitude summer ski area in Europe.
For summer skiing, clothing normally worn on a warm day of spring skiing is recommended. And if one wants to enjoy the best downhill runs on the Theodul Glacier, one should get up very early in the morning. Because the best conditions prevail under the not yet very strong morning sun. At noon the summer skiing area closes, so that it will reawaken in its best form the next day.
Freestyle fans can also look forward to this time of year, because the summer ski area includes the summer Zermatt Snowpark. This is one of the highest Freestyle spots and among the best snow parks in the Alps.
It is not unusual to meet up with well-known and famous skiers from around the world in the Zermatt – Matterhorn summer ski area. They also do not want to miss the perfectly prepared pistes, fast runs and downhill runs with a great bite. Over one hundred ski teams from 22 countries train on the glacier as they get ready for the next winter season.
