    Loved seeing the Matterhorn - it is on my bucket list. It’s nice to know that you don’t have to ski to enjoy. You all are great and get the most out of your adventures.

      Yes, it is definitely skiable but not in September. I think their season is late-March to early-April!

    Going to Zermatt next week. You guys have made a great video, very informative. As this ski “resort/town” is so huge to what we usually see in states did you guys use any kind of app to check which runs are open? And also to navigate between different part of the mountains? Thank you!

    • @StNickTravels
      @StNickTravels  13 дней назад

      Thank you so much! It comes with the ski passes actually. It is possible to purchase the train pass separately though as well!

  • @nl7002
    @nl7002 Месяц назад +1

    I'm sure you already know this (I hope) but you could have easily skied from the Sunnegga side to Gornergrat side, no need to take the tram back, walk, take the 45 mins train up. All 3 sides are connected by ski slopes. Same goes go Gornergrat to Glacier Paradise.

    • @StNickTravels
      @StNickTravels  Месяц назад

      Yes definitely! We saw there were some runs that connected but since it was Kyle's first time skiing (usually snowboards) we didn't see any routes that fit the skill level so spent the extra time going up and down! Thanks for the clarification!

  • @rainmaker3700
    @rainmaker3700 Год назад +2

    Headed to Zermatt this March2024! Was it worth it to stay in Tasch and pay the rail fee do you think as opposed to just staying in Zermatt??

    • @StNickTravels
      @StNickTravels  Год назад +1

      I think that's a tough call! If you're really trying for the most budget friendly, Tasch will definitely save you money and is a nice little town as well.
      That being said, you won't pay THAT much more staying in Zermatt given that you have to pay the extra train fee from Tasch.
      Cheers and have a great trip!

    What's name of ski area?
    How much is cost for ski lift?❤

    • @StNickTravels
      @StNickTravels  Месяц назад +1

      This area is Zermatt! I believe the ski part is called Matterhorn Paradise. The cost is around $100 for a single day but you can get it a bit cheaper with a multi day.

  • @canadiantraveler6060
    @canadiantraveler6060 Год назад +1

    Heading there in Feb 2024...seems there is a lot of road walking. Would "sole protectors" for our ski boots make sense?

    • @StNickTravels
      @StNickTravels  Год назад +1

      To be honest, we're not too familiar with sole protectors but I would say it depends on what kind of skier you are. If you think you'll be out all day on the slopes, it probably isn't needed. If you think you might frequently hang in town between runs, it could be helpful. In that regard though, there are a lot of food and drinks on mountain with incredible views.
      Another couple notes: we are pretty average skiers so you really could ski from area to area if you are good with more challenging runs. They do have a great shuttle throughout as well!
      Overall, we think you will be okay without. Hope that helps!

    man that looks awesome. going on a family trip and i cant seem to understand the lifts? If we buy the ski pass, were able to ski, but how do we get to the top? i understand the train but do we have to get tickets for the train or does that come with the ski pass? thanks guys awesome video

    • @StNickTravels
      @StNickTravels  21 день назад

      Thank you for the support! Yes, it was an amazing ski spot. So all of the lifts you saw us go on were included in the ski pass - the trains, gondolas, lifts, and funicular.
      Let us know if you have any other questions!

      Hi there! Yes, you can buy it for any amount of days and there is actually a small discount the more days you stay! Unfortunately, there is no discount with the Swiss Pass or anything. We rented ours from Matterhorn Sport and they were great! www.matterhornsport.ch/contact

      It fluctuates a bit by time of year and specific date but we paid about $75 USD for the lift ticket. Equipment is separate and we paid around $40 USD. Hope that helps!
