Freeriding
Higher, steeper, faster – freeriders love extremes. Their motto: no slope is unrideable. Unless you’ve raced down a run covered in virgin powder snow you’ve no idea what freedom feels like. But safety always must come first. Follow the link to the nine commandments for freeriders.
Heliskiing
Marvel at the ski area from a helicopter, land at around 4000 metres above sea level, then enjoy the pristine slopes: it’s a dream that can come true in the Matterhorn Ski Paradise. During the winter, Air Zermatt will carry adventurous guests to one of the mountain landing sites in the midst of the Alpine peaks above Zermatt. Perfect for high achievers!
Ski touring
Ski touring in Zermatt – some say it’s like hiking but on skis, as you make your way through the snow up to one of the peaks near the Matterhorn and marvel at the breathtaking views. For others, it means something more, because reaching the top means you’re ready to start the adrenaline-fuelled descent. For many that’s the high point of every tour. Take care, however – there are some rules you should follow.
