Hiking in Zermatt

Family Hiking Zermatt - Zum See is a great destination

We love to be active when we travel and one of our favouriteĀ family destinations for hiking, sightseeing and eating is Zermatt, Switzerland.Ā When youĀ visitĀ Zermatt, be sure to include theseĀ two hikes for the stunning scenery andĀ delicious restaurants along the way.

Zermatt to Findeln

The first hike is from Zermatt to Findeln. It is possible to take an underground funicular from Zermatt to Sunnegga Paradise and hike down to Findeln, but we prefer to hike up especially when we are heading toĀ Chez Vrony. Chez Vrony is located at 2,100 m with stunning views of the Matterhorn. The outdoor terrace with Matterhorn views entice aĀ stop, andĀ the food and drinks make it easy toĀ hang around and plan a return trip.Ā Seriously, we will hike all day if the destination is Chez Vrony.

Chez Vrony is a great family hiking destination above Zermatt

Zum See

The next delicious destination is Zum See, located below the chairlift between Zermatt and Furi. It is possible to hike up to Zum See or take the chairlift to Furi and hike down. While Chez Vrony was a cheese fondue, beer and antipasti stop for us; Zum SeeĀ was more about wine and dessert – at least for the adults.
