Soaring to 4,478 metres (14,691 ft), the majestic Matterhorn, undeniably one of Europe's most iconic mountains, dominates the awe-inspiring Alpine landscape. This Swiss landmark, located on the frontier of the western Swiss canton of Valais, forms the bridge between the Swiss ski resort of Zermatt and its Italian counterpart, Breuil-Cervinia. It provides a serene paradise for nature enthusiasts seeking tranquility and beauty.
Part of this panorama is the remarkable Matterhorn Ski Paradise, an extraordinary ski area that straddles the Swiss-Italian border. It boasts an expansive ski lift network extending over 52 km (32 mi), connecting Zermatt in Switzerland with the Italian resorts of Breuil-Cervinia and Valtournenche.
The area serves skiers and snowboarders of all skill levels, offering more than 360 km of slopes scattered across 360 hectares (889 ac) of skiable land. The region is home to a wide spectrum of difficulty levels as well as abundant off-piste backcountry skiing options. Coupled with the Swiss hospitality and the Italian lifestyle, the region truly is a year-round haven for snow sports enthusiasts from all over the world.
The Matterhorn Ski Paradise provides an extraordinary high Alpine skiing experience, boasting 360 km (223 mi) of pistes. The Swiss entry point of the ski area, Zermatt, perched at 1,620 meters (5,314 ft), offers 200 km (124 mi) of ski runs, including Snowpark Zermatt, which operates in both summer and winter. Over the border, the Italian side at Breuil-Cervinia, standing at 2,050 meters (6,725 ft), offers 160 km (99 mi) of slopes. This area hosts the versatile Indianpark and presents a variety of slopes suitable for all skiing levels at Plan Maison, Ventina, and Plateau Rosa.
Zermatt: Nestled at the foot of the iconic Matterhorn, Zermatt is a postcard-perfect ski resort that offers a blend of luxury and world-class skiing. Known for its car-free status, the resort radiates old-world charm while boasting some of the most advanced ski facilities in the world.
Breuil-Cervinia: Just across the border, Cervinia offers a more laid-back but equally stunning skiing experience. Sharing the same ski area as Zermatt, this resort provides more than just fantastic slopes; it offers a taste of Italian alpine culture. Cervinia is a great place for beginners and intermediates, thanks to its wide, forgiving runs.

4.9/5I usually book flights, ground transportation, hotel, ski rental and lift tickets myself but this year used WeSki for a trip to Morzine. It was so much easier. Everything worked perfectly - ground transportation arrived on time and there was plenty of feedback throughout the whole process giving you confidence the vacation would go smoothly.
A really useful service that is so much easier to use than other 'all-inclusive' sites. It nicely bridges the gap between a travel agent and booking the trip yourself online. I'll use WeSki every time I go skiing from now on.
We booked a late minute skiing trip to Morzine through we ski. We looked at booking the trip ourselves but could get anywhere near the price quoted by we ski. The company was excellent and we had no problems at all from start to finish. I would definitely use them to book another weekend skiing trip.
Seamless experience from start to finish. I was spending ages trying to sort out a weekend break and managed to do it with we ski in minutes and for the same price as booking it all up yourself. Flight, transit and accommodation was all as expected and faultless.
