Life in Zermatt, season by season.
What the village looks like through the year, and how it feels to call it home.
First Snow on the Riffelberg
The chapel wears a thin white layer. Behind it the Matterhorn stands clear, cold and very close.
Winter Hiking
The trail is groomed, the snow holds firm. Silence beside the slope, breath in the cold, the Matterhorn near and white.
Off the Piste
Fewer tracks, more terrain. Between the slopes and the glacier, Zermatt opens up once more.

Summer Hike to the Glacier
In high summer, green still lingers below, and the ice begins above. The path turns bright, the air thin, the Matterhorn draws close.
Summer on the High Trail
Larches, stone, a wide view. The path runs quietly along the slope, with the village below and the Matterhorn above.
Running the High Trail
In summer, the trail holds firm. Light air, solid ground, the Matterhorn in view. Step by step above the village.
