Poster: A snowHead

Hi there, I have a flight booked to Zurich on 5th Jan. Who can recommend a resort within a 4-hour transfer time by train that currently has decent snow conditions?

Zermatt.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks @Gämsbock, I actually just spent 16-19 Dec in Zermatt and I agree the conditions were good. For variety though I was hoping someone would suggest somewhere other than Zermatt!

Saas Fee looks mostly open, I'd imagine conditions there are decent? We had a good day at Verbier at the weekend and would have been happy to spend a several more there - a few stones lower down but everything high was in great nick. Piedmont is doable in 4 hours maybe?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Cheers @Snow Hound, will check out your suggestions. I'm also going to look into Andermatt, though I think there it's more about the off-piste which surely won't be viable.

@skidm, I was at Andermatt 10 days ago... available skiing was limited. Don't think it's had more than a smattering of snow since. Certainly nowhere close to the amount of terrain available at Zermatt. Ditto Engelberg. Obviously things can change between now and the 5th.

thanks @Gämsbock, I'll be crossing Andermatt of the list, unless they get a sudden dump.
Anyone know how things are looking at Davos-Klosters?
@altis cheers, that's useful.

@skidm, No major snow forecast on weather models for central Switzerland until Mid January! Mountain guides here in Engelberg are pushing climbing rather than skiing over christmas and into the new year
