Ice slide in Zermatt ski resort

With two of the three glaciers currently open for snow sports in Switzerland due to close after this weekend, only the year round snow sports destination of Zermatt – of only two in the world – will be open for skiing and boarding in the country as we enter June. Snowsports take place on the glacier beneath the Klein Matterhorn, which is served, in summer only, by Europe’s highest lift, a drag up to 3,899m. But two new attractions have been unveiled for visitors this summer besides the high altitude skiing and boarding.
