Most people come here for the epic descents down from the summit of the Gemsstock and for good reason – it is one of the Alps’ finest areas for steep skiing and snowboarding.
However, beginners and intermediates should not be put off, as the new lifts and link to Sedrun have opened up some fantastic cruising terrain. The offering for beginners has improved markedly in recent years, and there is a good, sunny beginner zone at Nätschen. From here, the long winding blue back down to the resort and the open blues up by Gütsch offer good progression.
There are also some great, snowsure runs for intermediates in the linked ski area and also on Gurschenalp below the Gemsstock. You get a real sense of travel by reaching the far end at Sedrun and all of it can be done on well-groomed reds.
This is where the ski area really comes into its own. The entire Gemsstock mountain is a freerider’s paradise, with steep descents and big vertical on every run. Hire a guide or visit on a Ski Club Freshtracks Holiday to experience the very best of this epic sector. Towards Sedrun there is also some good off piste and several blacks – which are a blast when freshly groomed.
The town is quietly attractive and the scenery surrounding it is dramatic. Charming old houses line the main street, which runs from the central river bridge to the Gemsstock cable car. Most of the new development is on the margins, out past the station.
Andermatt has become better for families, and the beginner area up at Nätschen is becoming increasingly good for children. Off the slopes there are some excellent winter walking trails and a great sledging run down to the village.
Andermatt is quiet on the après front and a quiet beer or glühwein is the local way to end the skiing day. In town, the Piccadilly Pub and De Prato are lively, while the luxury Chedi hotel bar is a classy place to have a post- skiing drink.
Andermatt-Sedrun-Disentis operates different dates for different sectors:

Warm weather opens the weekend across Switzerland, with the freezing line sitting high at close to or above 4,000m throughout. Things change as the weekend continues, with temperatures cooling as the freezing line comes down to as low as 1,500m.
Cloud cover dominates, and with it precipitation; this will fall as rain initially, but will turn to snow as temperatures fall. Around 12cm will fall in steady flurries throughout the weekend and into the new week, falling almost entirely on higher ground as the freezing line remains above 2,000m during this period.
High pressure brings fine, dry and bright conditions especially across the west of the region.
Thus concludes our snow overviews for this season. Thank you to everyone who has read them this season, and we look forward to seeing you again next year!
