Zermatt, in southern Switzerland’s Valais canton, is a mountain resort renowned for skiing, climbing and Alpine recreation. The town of Zermatt (elevation: 1,620m) is set below the iconic, snowcapped Matterhorn peak. Its main street, Bahnhofstrasse, has upscale boutiques, lodging from luxurious hotels to modest chalets, and a lively apres-ski scene. There are public outdoor rinks for ice-skating and curling.
The village of Zermatt itself is lovely & car-free wit hold fashioned brown chalets & winding alleys. (Don't worry, you don't have to walk everywhere_there are electric vehicles & horse-drawn cabs). Skiing in the region often lasts through early summer, but when the weather's warmer, it's a great time to hike. Zermatt repeatedly wins awards for its Eco-friendliness.- Zermatt, Canton of Valais, Switzerland
