Poster: A snowHead
|
Am I right in saying that the cable car that brings you to the peak for summer skiing
(The 40 minute cable car) is at the Kein Matterhorn.
And would anyone now where I can get a good detailed map of zermatt with a legend box on it.
I found a good map with lots of numbers to mark hotels etc... but no key to tell you what they are.
Much appreciate any help.
Brian.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

yep summer is at the klein matterhorn, sometimes out of season they direct you to schwarzsee and around, a little bit longer.
Dunno about a map.

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

Map - see if this helps:
on the official site zermatt.ch click on 'direct reservation hotels', then 'list of hotels', find and click hotel SONNE, then click 'Homepage'. You will now be on home page of the hotel, click 'Details', then 'village map'. That map shows hotels as little orange/brown blocks. When you place the arrow over a block the name of the lodging comes up below in the browser status bar.

flexrip,
From resort it is 3 stages with the drag to 3899 making it 4, IIRC. You might be able to ski down to 2900 depending on the weather. Personally I would avoid August as too hot or it was when I was there a few years back now

Even if it's scorching you can still get back to Trockener steg, or within spitting distance of it, I never get the cable car back down, that just feels wrong.
Ditto on the avoiding august, I've had the weather turn pretty crap around then, it snowed last year in august and was closed due to wind, june july is good, I had an awesome few days there last october, really warm, little did I know that was to be the curse of the winter.
It's worth checking when the snowboard camps/race training starts up, I tend to avoid it then, gets a bit busy. I think it's early june/late may.
