Chalet Zaphir

Luxury Ski Chalets

The chalet is within close proximity to both the Matterhorn Express and Sunnegga funicular lift-systems and the charming, pedestrian-only town of Zermatt.

Luxury Ski Holidays

The village of Zermatt enjoys an idyllic, car-free location at the foot of Matterrhorn Mountain. A former farming village, the area is now awash with ski hotels, facilities and a feisty après-ski scene, although its natural charm remains – thanks to the beautiful chalets, narrow lanes and wooden barns. With more than 300km of ski runs to enjoy, Zermatt is a good choice for established skiers, boasting 39 blue runs, 113 red and 43 black, and just a sprinkling of beginner’s clubs. Accessing the pistes is relatively simple, with a new and improved ski system which runs from 8am every day and finishing as late as 5pm during seasonal months, while the snow is also impressive - the climate is relatively dry, the slopes are high and snow-making is extensive. Post-ski opportunities are endless; there’s an extensive helicopter service as well as two ice rinks and a magnitude of restaurants, bars, tearooms and patisseries. Take the cable car up to Klein Matterhorn or enjoy freshly prepared crepes on the resort’s main street – Bahnhofstrasse; in Zermatt, it’s as much about the social scene as it is about the skiing.

Luxury Family Holidays

Pre-book a private nanny service and children can be taken to and from their ski lessons and kept entertained with a varied and imaginative activity programme. Healthy home made lunches and snacks are provided and babysitting is available on request. A wide range of equipment for babies and toddlers can also be provided.
