Zermatt is a paradise for advanced skiers. The long freeride runs (ski routes) at Stockhorn and Hohtälli are very popular. Here, you can descend over 1,000 vertical meters on deep powder slopes. You will also find magnificent powder slopes at Rothorn. A mogul run leads from Blauherd down to Eja. At Hirli, Schwarzsee, and below the Trockener Steg, several freeride runs (ski routes) are also waiting for you. In addition, there are some steep and perfectly groomed slopes.
In the ski areas of Breuil-Cervinia and Valtournenche, there are also some challenging slopes. Overall, however, most of the slopes are of medium or easy difficulty. Off the slopes, you will find many powder tracks.
