Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
I am planning a snowboarding vacation, and Zermatt is a possibility.
I'm trying to locate the Zermatt ski-bus map, so I could have accommodation within short walking distance of a ski-bus stop.
Googling didn't get me a link to this map.
Do any of you know where could I see the Zermatt ski-bus map on-line ?
Thanks,
BR.

Hi Arlberg,
Thanks for the pointer.
I could find there (with my non-existing German) what I assume are the the bus' Summer timetable at BUSBETRIEB LINIE BERGBAHNEN and BUSBETRIEB LINIE WINKELMATTEN.
Alas, no ski-bus map.
Bye,
Ron.

boardrider, Agenterre, is right. Or walk - it isn't that big a place and with no traffic walking's a pleasure.

Great resort.
But don't bother going unless you can find a hotel next to a major lift.
The skibuses suck. They are tiny, slow and overcrowded.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Thanks for the tip Whitegold: I'll take it into consideration.

That is a serious problem with Zermatt! We stayed in a place just off the main strip! In the morning from the time we left the hotel to the time we actually did some skiing was in the region of 45mins! Be aware of this! Once you are on the slopes it is divine, with that stunning view making up for the long transfer to the mountain!!

You know it makes sense.

what ski bus isnt crowded...
at new year 2008 we never had to wait more than 2 buses getting home and they're pretty frequent. In the mornings we always got on the first bus to come. We were leaving at about 8am. I guess bed rotters might have had bigger queues once the beautiful people got up later in the morning/afternoon.

They had some much bigger buses this past winter.
We are staying down near the Sunegga express this year so we have 2 options, go up to Rothorn or be nearer the start of the bus line if we want to go upto Kleine Matterhorn.
Much more of a pain is the coming back of an evening, we've found a way round that, but its our secret for now, will let the world know on December 29th, when we are back home.
Yes they are crowded, but thats one of the downsides for arguably the best all-round ski resort in the world.

hobbiteater, Lucky sod, we had to wait and wait and wait
Of course if you are staying near the terminus you could be lucky or if many got off the funicular there may be capacity at the next stop.

arlberg, Certainly a beautiful place. But a serious pain in the @rse getting to the slopes. We did not have a problem coming off the mountain though, bus was always waiting.

The ski buses were not worth waiting for, if their batteries wern't flat the busses were full. Took the communal electric taxis. As mentioned the route follws the river & is flat so poled it on a couple of occassions raher than perish waiting.
