Zermatt Ski Lessons & Guiding

Anyone skiing & snowboarding Zermatt for the first time may struggle to comprehend the full diversity of the off-piste ski terrain potential as much of it is not immediately obvious. Whilst a guide may not be necessary for experienced visitors to the ski resort, anyone wanting to quickly get to know the area will benefit from some time with a quality ski instructor and/or mountain guide.

The backcountry zones around Zermatt, particularly on the glaciers of the Monte Rosa massif, are best explored with an experienced guide to maximise the enjoyment of the area. A guide or instructor will provide safety plus perhaps improve your backcountry & off-piste skiing skills as well.

On the piste, the widely separate zones in Zermatt on Sunnegga-Blauherd-Rothorn, Gornergrat-Hohtalli, Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, and Schwarzsee-Hirli can confound anyone new the resort. A local ski or snowboard instructor can provide not only improvements in technique, but also take you to the best slopes on any given day.

A diverse array of ski instructors, ski schools & mountain guides ply their trade in the Zermatt ski resort & adjacent skiing areas like Cervinia, Monterosa Ski & Saas Fee. To narrow down the field, use our partners from a listing below.
