Shared shuttle or coach

Best for: Solo travellers and couples on a budget

Train and bus to Zermatt: official guide

Hire car

Best for: Exploring several resorts during your stay

Driving 245 km into the mountains in winter means winter tyres, snow chains where required and paid parking at Täsch, because Zermatt is car-free. Worth it if you will use the car during the week.

Return transfer: Zermatt to Milan Linate Airport

Tips for this journey

  • Give your flight number and the number of ski or snowboard bags when you book. Passenger seats and luggage space are not the same thing.
  • Zermatt is car-free: road transfers stop at the Matterhorn Terminal in Täsch, where the shuttle train runs to Zermatt in about 12 minutes.
  • Saturday is changeover day in most Alpine resorts, so roads and airports are at their busiest. A midweek or Sunday arrival is usually quicker.
  • Use your full accommodation address. Two chalets "in Zermatt" can be far apart, and some are only reachable on foot or by a local shuttle.
