Looking for the Zermatt ski map and wondering where to start? Zermatt has three ski areas on the Swiss side – Sunnegga-Rothorn, Gornergrat and Matterhorn Glacier Paradise – plus a link over the border to Cervinia in Italy. That is 360 km of pistes going up to 3,899 m, and the map can look like a lot the first time you open it.
We live in Valais and have skied Zermatt with our kids Skiing in Zermatt Switzerland. This guide goes through the map area by area: which lift to take from the village, where beginners and families should ski, where we stop for lunch, and what it all costs in winter 2026/27.

Zermatt Ski Map (2026/27)
This is the official Zermatt ski map. We have circled the three Swiss ski areas in colour: Sunnegga-Rothorn in yellow, Gornergrat in purple and Matterhorn Glacier Paradise–Schwarzsee in green. The Italian side, Cervinia and Valtournenche, is on the right.
How to read it: blue runs are easy, red are intermediate and black are difficult. The yellow runs are freeride routes: marked on the map but not groomed. Most of the map is red – 227 km of the 360 km – which tells you who Zermatt suits best.

Where are the ski lifts in Zermatt village?
Zermatt has three lift stations, and which one you stay near matters more than people expect. Our map shows all three, plus the beginner parks and the mountain restaurants we mention below.
- Gornergrat train: directly opposite the main train station. No bus needed.
- Sunnegga funicular: by the river, about 5–10 minutes on foot from the station. The green e-bus stops there too (stop: Getwing/Sunnegga)
- Matterhorn Express: at the top end of the village, about 15–20 minutes on foot from the centre. In ski boots and with kids, take the green e-bus, which runs from the station past Sunnegga to the Matterhorn Express.
The e-bus is included in your ski pass. Zermatt has two electric bus lines: the green one goes to the lift stations, the red one (Winkelmatten) up to the chalets on the hillside. The Matterhorn app shows where the buses are live, so you’re not standing in the cold waiting.
Zermatt ski map by difficulty: where to ski at your level?
Is Zermatt good for beginners?
Yes, as long as you know where to go. The beginner areas are up the mountain, not next to the village, so you ride a lift up and a lift back down. Once you are up there it works really well: Wolli’s Beginners’ Park at Sunnegga has five magic carpets and a view of the Matterhorn, and there is a second beginner area, the Snowli park, at Riffelberg on the Gornergrat side.
You do not need the full ski pass to learn. The beginner ski pass costs from CHF 60 a day and covers the Sunnegga funicular, the Sunnegga–Blauherd lift, the Leisee shuttle, the Eisfluh and Findeln chairlifts and Wolli’s park. It is valid from 28 November 2026 to 11 April 2027.
What do kids need on the slopes? Here is what our kids wear for skiing.
Intermediates
This is who Zermatt is built for. 227 km of the 360 km are red runs.
One of our favourite runs starts on the Theodul Glacier on the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise side and goes all the way down to Zermatt via Furi. Start with a few laps in the snow park at the top if you like.
When the snow is good, piste 28 from Hohtälli down to Riffelberg is brilliant.
Experts
There are 20 km of black runs and 36 km of yellow freeride routes. One of the steepest is piste 8, Obere National, at 61%.
On a powder day, Zermatt is great almost anywhere. If you want more of a challenge, head to Rote Nase: in good conditions it is a dream, and any of pistes 30 to 33 will do the job.
Yellow runs are marked but not groomed. Anything off the markers is for a mountain guide.
Skiing at Sunnegga – Rothorn in Zermatt
Beginners & families: if you are not sure if Zermatt is good for families, then let me introduce you to the Sunnegga ski area, which is definitely a paradise for families and beginners.
You will find Wolli’s Beginners’ Park up at Sunnegga by the frozen Leisee. You do not need to be a skier to access the park. A self-service funicular brings you from the Sunnegga station down to the Leisee Wolli park and back up again at the end of the day.
The Wolli park has five magic carpets in a sheltered and sunny setting looking right at the Matterhorn.
Beginners of all ages are comfortable here, and learning to make “pizzas and French fries” (snowplough and parallel skiing) was never so much fun! Children will also find a variety of play equipment to keep them entertained.
Families learning to ski at the Wolli park do not need the full ski pass: the beginner ski pass covers the Sunnegga funicular, the lifts in the beginner area and the park itself.
The other pistes up at Sunnegga – Rothorn are also ideal for easy skiing with great views.
How to access the Sunnegga – Rothorn ski domain from Zermatt
You can take the green or red e-bus within Zermatt village and get off at the Sunnegga funicular station.
Once at Sunnegga you can transfer to the Blauherd gondola, and go even further up with the large cable car to Rothorn at 3,103 m. The views over the glaciers and the 4,000 m peaks from up here are stunning.
New for winter 2026/27: a six-seater chairlift from Patrullarve up to Blauherd replaces the old four-seater, the oldest lift in the ski area.
Where to eat at the Sunnegga Rothorn ski area
If you like to have lunch on the mountain in an exceptional setting, the Sunnegga side is the top choice. You can find all of these on our Zermatt map.
- Restaurant Fluhalp can be reached from Rothorn down red piste number 19.
- Findeln is the top place, but its popularity means it does get busy. The hamlet of old Valais mazots has become a hub for food lovers and anyone who likes something special. Whether you choose Chez Vrony (Prince William’s favourite), @Paradise or the Findlerhof, all of them offer unique views in a charming, cosy and more upmarket setting. From Sunnegga, take blue piste number 6 down to Findeln.
- The large self-service restaurant at Sunnegga station has a big sun terrace and good Swiss mountain food. It is also easy for non-skiers to reach because it is right by the funicular.
- Blue Lounge at Blauherd is another popular place with a stunning terrace and, yes you guessed it, panoramic views of the Matterhorn, often with live music or DJs. This is also easy for non-skiers to reach.
Unique features of the Sunnegga -Rothorn Ski Domain in Zermatt
Apart from being super pretty, with unbelievable panoramic views of the Matterhorn, the Sunnegga ski area has some special features.
Firstly, as mentioned above, Wolli’s Beginners’ Park, and secondly two pretty photo points: the Zermatt heart at Blauherd and the Grand Tour of Switzerland photo point at the very top of Rothorn.
You can also follow the Matterhorn climbing history path at Rothorn, a short path explaining the first climbs of the nearby peaks and many other facts about the Matterhorn.
Practical information: at the Sunnegga village station you can leave your skis locked up for CHF 2 a day. This is extremely practical if your hotel is not close to the lift, and especially if you also have to carry your kids’ skis.
Skiing in Zermatt at the Gornergrat Ski Area
With access to some of Zermatt’s finest itineraries, like Hohtälli at 3,286 m, and the Gornergrat itself at 3,089 m, the Gornergrat ski area is often a favourite with visitors.
From the Gornergrat panoramic viewing terrace you get an impressive view of the Gorner Glacier and the 4,000 m peaks around it. A unique view and not to be missed.
Beginners & families: like the other areas of the Zermatt ski domain, the Gornergrat ski area works for the whole family and pretty much every level of skiing.
At Riffelberg, beginners will find the Snowli beginners’ park with a magic carpet and other obstacles, which make those first turns much more fun.
And if you like jumps, there are plenty to be found between the pistes from Gornergrat all the way down to Riffelberg.
How to access the Gornergrat ski domain from Zermatt
Riding the comfortable Gornergrat train is without a doubt one of the nicest train rides in Switzerland.
The train leaves from opposite the Zermatt train station and taxi square.
If you ride all the way to the top of the Gornergrat, the trip takes 33 minutes. Have your camera ready and, if possible, sit on the right-hand side going up.
This is also a great mountain top for non-skiers to visit. More in our guide to the Gornergrat train: tickets and timetable.
Where to eat at the Gornergrat ski area
Like the other Zermatt ski areas, there is a good choice of restaurants.
- The Panorama Self Restaurant at the Gornergrat is ideal for a quick bite and you simply cannot fault the view. The Matterhorn seems so close you could touch it. There is also a hotel and a shop, in case you need something to take home!
- If a cute, authentic Swiss hut is more your style, make your way to the Chämi Hitta. Not only will you be served authentic Swiss food, but also the best apple strudel in Zermatt. Ski down piste number 41 to Untere Riffelalp, before the Landtunnel.
- The centrally located Restaurant Riffelberg at 2,482 m is a favourite with families whose kids are in the beginners’ area right next door. It is easy to reach with the Gornergrat train, which stops pretty much outside.
Unique features of the Gornergrat ski domain in Zermatt
The Gornergrat is an amazing place to visit in itself, with great glacier views, a shop and its own gin distillery, Matterhorn Distillers, at the Kulmhotel Gornergrat.
You will also find another Grand Tour of Switzerland photo point up at the Gornergrat.
Zooom the Matterhorn is a multimedia experience dedicated to the Matterhorn and the alpine world around it, in three stages.
First, you zoom in on the Matterhorn: get closer to the “Horu” (the locals’ name for the Matterhorn) with the periscopes, with graphics giving extra information as you look.
The second stage is an immersive 3D cinema, with photography and video that make you feel you are actually climbing to the top.
And last but not least, the third stage lets you fly your “own” paraglider over the Matterhorn while you hear the alpine eagle and other sounds of the mountains.
An incredible experience. For tickets, check their website. check their website.
The sledge run at Rotenboden is a good afternoon alternative to skiing. Take the Gornergrat train from Riffelberg and get off at Rotenboden. This is also where you will find the famous Riffelsee; if you visit in late spring, the lake may already be starting to thaw, which makes a great photo.
The Iglu-Dorf (igloo village) is next to piste number 45 and a must when you are in Zermatt. You can book a night there, or just stop for lunch or a drink and admire the art inside the igloos. Don’t miss the picture window: day visitors can go inside one igloo with a perfect cut-out window framing the Matterhorn, which makes a super sweet photo.
Practical information: if your accommodation is at the top end of Zermatt, near the Matterhorn Express, you may want to reach the Gornergrat ski area via Furi. This is a good idea at busy times in particular, as the Gornergrat train is often full. Take the Matterhorn Express, get off at Furi and take the gondola up to Riffelberg.
The Matterhorn Glacier Paradise – Schwarzsee Ski Area
As its name says, this is the paradise of Zermatt. The Matterhorn Glacier Paradise and Schwarzsee ski area offers glacier skiing for most of the year, from Europe’s highest mountain station, the Klein Matterhorn.
Starting your ski day at a staggering 3,883 m above sea level is unique, amazing and simply beautiful.
Beginners & families may want to experience the ride and the views from the top of Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, but maybe not the ski down: you need to be able to ski red runs to get down to Trockener Steg.
You can still head up to visit the Matterhorn Glacier Palace and stand on the viewing platform, looking out over 14 glaciers and many 4,000 m peaks in three countries.
Read our full guide to the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise and how best to visit the Matterhorn Glacier Palace
How to access the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise – Schwarzsee ski domain from Zermatt
Take the Matterhorn Express gondola from the top end of the village (1,620 m) all the way to Trockener Steg. You no longer need to change on the way, and the ride takes about 30 minutes. At Trockener Steg, switch to the cable car for the last stretch up to the Klein Matterhorn. From the village to the top, allow about 45 minutes.
Where to eat at the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise – Schwarzsee Ski area
- Why not take a seat at the highest mountain restaurant in Europe? There is something for every taste, and the views from the panorama windows at 3,883 m are out of this world. It is also accessible for non-skiers and wheelchair users.
- Restaurant Schwarzsee, at the foot of the Matterhorn, is not to be missed whether you ski or not. Ski down from Trockener Steg on any of the red runs and take the short ride back up with the Matterhorn Express to Schwarzsee. Normally not too crowded.
- For another great lunch you need to ski almost all the way back to Zermatt: the cosy Swiss chalet Zum See is past Furi on the piste down to the village. Well worth it.
Unique features on the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise Ski Area in Zermatt
Where to start? The Matterhorn Glacier Paradise – Schwarzsee ski area has a lot of special features. Here are the biggest ones.
The Matterhorn Glacier Palace. Stepping 15 metres inside a glacier is quite unique and highly recommended for everyone. It is at the top of the Klein Matterhorn and open to skiers and non-skiers.
Read More on How to visit the Matterhorn Glacier Palace
The snow park is on this side and a paradise for snowboarders and freeskiers. From October to May it sits on the lower part of the Theodul Glacier at 3,250 m. From Trockener Steg you can reach it via Matterhorn Glacier Paradise or with the Furggsattel chairlift.
Zermatt’s winter snow park is 1.2 km long with six lines, giving plenty of obstacles to practise, progress and show off. Younger riders will find a fun slope with tunnels, hills and small jumps, while experienced riders will enjoy some massive kickers. If you and the kids love a good park, this is definitely the place to go.
The “Zermatt” photo sign is at the Schwarzsee station, right in front of the Matterhorn. A great spot for some iconic Zermatt holiday pictures. 
Have fun at the Zermatt sign at SchwarzseeThe InfoCube at Trockener Steg is an experience centre where you set off on a virtual trip over the glaciers with VR goggles. It tells the story of how the Klein Matterhorn was opened up and how the new cable car was built. Maybe more for adults than kids, but well worth your time. Admission is free.
The Swisscom Swiss Ski Race: just below Trockener Steg on piste number 65 you will find a fun race course with a proper start gate and timing. Kids love the feeling of racing in a real Swiss ski race.
Skiing from Zermatt to Cervinia (Italy)
You can ski from Zermatt into Italy and be back the same day. Ride up to Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, cross the border on skis and follow the pistes down to Breuil-Cervinia or, further on, Valtournenche. Most of the pistes are red, Cervinia has one of the steepest runs in the area, and some of the runs are very long, going all the way down to the purpose-built village of Breuil-Cervinia.
- Pass: you need the International ski pass (from CHF 104 a day), not the Zermatt one.
- Dates 2026/27: the link to Cervinia is open from 24 October 2026; Valtournenche from 28 November 2026 to 25 April 2027.
- Last lift back: be at the border or Plan Maison/Furgg area no later than 3:00 PM to ensure you do not get stranded. Miss it and you are paying for a very long taxi ride.
- Wind: the link closes in strong wind, so check the live map before you set off.

New this winter: the old four-seater Patrullarve chairlift up to Blauherd, running since 1989, is replaced by a six-seater for the 2026/27 season.

Summer skiing: Zermatt is known for skiing 365 days a year, but that is no longer a promise. In summer 2026 the lift company paused summer skiing for guests on 31 July because of the heat. If you are planning a summer ski day, check the live map first.
Where to stay in Zermatt for skiing
The best place to stay depends on who you are travelling with, but my main tip is the same for everyone: stay close to the lift you will use most. Zermatt is car-free and the three lift stations are spread along the village. With beginners or small kids, that is Sunnegga.
- Ski-in/ski-out: Riffelalp Resort and the 3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat are on the mountain, on the Gornergrat line. Check dates for the Kulmhotel
- Near the Sunnegga funicular: We always love to stay at Hotel National Zermatt. Check dates & reviews
- Something different: a night in the Iglu-Dorf on the Gornergrat side.

Hi Corina,
We are planning to come to Zermatt in mid February. We are going to ski four or five days. What is the best (and cheapest) ski tickets option.
Thanks,
Hi, what a great ski trip is upcoming for you. Skiing in Zermatt is amazing!
Honestly as Zermatt has many different options it is best you get in touch with Matterhorn Bergbahnen direct and let them know what you would like. (international or just Switzerlnad)
I am sorry not to be able to give you a straight answer but this will be your best option.
Have fun when you go
Corina
Hi
Thank you for your article. Very helpful and interesting.
I have been trying to find a resource that describes the different ski runs and the difficulty level of each one but have not had much luck. Can you direct me to a link or website that talks about the different runs. There are so many. Thank you so much. Lisa
Hi Lisa
You should be able to see on the zermatt ski map on our article the grading ( level) of the ski Pists. Blue is easy red is a bit steeper and black is steep.
Sunnegga side is quite an easy ski area for Zermatt.
I hope this helps
have fun in Zermatt
Corina
Hi there, this has been an incredibly helpful blog to help us plan for our trip.
Quick question, if I purchased ski tickets for the day already, do I still need to purchase a train ticket to get up to Gornergrat to ski that part of the mountain?
Thanks!
Hi Ian
I am glad it helped a lot.
The ski pass covers Gornergrat as it is part of the ski domain.
have a great day
Corina
