Are you travelling by train?
Visitors travelling from Geneva should change at Visp or Brig (not all express trains stop at Visp). If you are coming from Basel, Zurich, Berne or Milan, change at Brig. Passengers on the «Glacier Express» from Chur or St. Moritz can travel directly to Zermatt!
If you travel by car,
the village Täsch (5 km outside of Zermatt) is your final destination. We should be glad to reserve a covered parking space for you at the «Welcome Parking» of the Riffelalp Resort. In case you wish to avail yourself of this service, please contact the hotel.
Visitors can reach the «Riffelalp Resort 2222m» from Zermatt station via the Gornergrat mountain railway: the last train leaves Zermatt at 11.30 p.m.; the first morning train down to Zermatt station departs during the winter at 6.45 a.m and during the summer at 8.20 a.m. We provide a shuttle service through the splendid stone pine forest from Riffelalp station to the «Resort», in summer by private tram and in winter motorised.
