Last summer I absolutely fell in love with Zermatt. It was one of my absolute favorite places we visited on our 2-week tour of Switzerland.
It is so, so beautiful — a charming Alpine village with incredible mountains, breathtaking glacier-fed lakes, and endless hiking trails… So much to do and see. I could definitely see myself living there.
I really, really did not want to leave… It was so hard to get on the train after 3 short days!
When I was planning my dad’s surprise ski trip to Switzerland, I knew we absolutely had to go back to Zermatt.
The views of the Matterhorn everywhere you turn are just unbelievable!!
Especially when skiing!!








With just 7 days in Switzerland in December, what itinerary would you suggest? Our main purpose of trip is to ski Zermatt but would like to tack on a couple more towns for exploration. We will have our twin 17 year old daughters with us so we are looking for more exciting towns.
Where do you recommend we stay in Zermatt ?
This is pretty awesome! I think a lot of tourists miss Zermatt, Switzerland.
Zermatt is one of my favourite places in the world! Your images just brought back wonderful memories!
Thank you for the post.
