How to get to Zermatt from Geneva

 

Zermatt is a charming Swiss ski town in the heart of the Alps. The resort has a very good location, thanks to which the snow cover stays there for a long time. You will find here a high-class ski holiday with the longest slopes, comfortable ski lifts, excellent hotels and restaurants!

 

 

 

Unfortunately, getting to Zermatt is not so easy. Everything is complicated by the lack of an airport and a full-fledged railway station, moreover, the city takes care of the cleanliness of the environment, so cars are also prohibited here. You can get into the city itself only by train, electric car or cart, or order a transfer or taxi in a car that is credited for a trip to Zermatt itself, but there are very few such cars.
