Andermatt

Surrounded by pristine mountains, Andermatt is centered in the Gotthard massive, which is situated
in Central Switzerland, has really lots to offer in any season. During the winter the Urserntal valley
turns into a huge winter sports arena and in summer the region provides a variety of activities including
mountain climbing, biking, golfing, hiking, paragliding, fishing, etc. Among this breathtaking Alpine
scenery, one can easily escape the busy daily life and relax and have a good time.
 
During the winter, Andermatt/Ursern valley is a great ski, snowboard and cross-country area and
offers twenty-five lifts and 130 km of well-prepared slopes, which invite to spend a exciting day in
the snow. On the top of the almost 3 kilometers high Gemsstock, one will find a breathtaking panoramic
view of over six hundred summits. The Bernhard-Russi-Run, a very popular ski run down the glacier,
received its name in honor of the winner of the Olympic Games in Sapporo. The Gemsstock ski scene
features black runs: 26.5 km; red runs: 23.5 km; and blue runs: 6.3 kilometers.
