Swiss Ski Resort - Zermatt

Swiss Ski Resort - Zermatt The small town of Zermatt, known as the "Glacier City," is located among the peaks of the Alps and is a world-famous mountain tourist destination free from car pollution. Zermatt is a charming mountain village that is famous for the Matterhorn. It is also a world-class ski resort with excellent snow quality. In addition to excellent hiking trails and ski resorts, there are also snow sports such as glacier flying chairs, fun ski seats, and single-leg skateboards, making it a popular holiday destination in both winter and summer. Zermatt is an elegant town with fresh air and magnificent mountain and glacier views. Thirty-eight peaks over 4,000 meters above sea level surround Zermatt, with a total ski trail length of 245 km. There are no cars in Zermatt, and everyone gets around by electric car. However, the town is not very big, with a total length of 1,500 meters and a width of 400 meters. If you jog, you can make a round trip in 20 minutes. The shops on both sides of the street mostly sell souvenirs, and there are also many sporting goods stores, bakeries, and cafes. The town is located among many mountain ski resorts, and its unique geographical location makes it one of the most famous resorts in the world. The ski resort has 54 mountain cable cars and more than 300 km of ski trails. The area is known as the "Matterhorn Glacier Paradise" and is the largest and highest summer ski resort in the world. Many national ski teams train here in the summer. In the eyes of mountaineers, the area is legendary: the Haute Route from Mont Blanc to Zermatt is an internationally challenging mountaineering route that takes several days to complete. The more than 400 km long mountaineering route crosses the entire Matter Valley, including a trade route dating back to the 13th century used by donkey traders. The Matterhorn is 4,478 meters above sea level and is a symbol of the Alps. It is featured on the packaging of famous Swiss chocolate. It is a symbol of the Alps and is known as the "King of Mountains" in Europe. Its masculine and majestic qualities make the surrounding mountains bow down to it. In 2001, the Matterhorn became a sister mountain to Yulong Snow Mountain in Lijiang, Yunnan, China, bringing it closer to China.
