Rent a waterproof ski jacket in Zermatt. Insulated and shell options available. No need to buy — rent quality gear for your trip.
Car-free Zermatt sits beneath the Matterhorn and offers year-round glacier skiing.
Zermatt reaches 3,883m at the Klein Matterhorn — the highest lift-served point in the Alps — and connects via the Matterhorn Alpine Crossing to Cervinia in Italy, giving 360 km of cross-border piste on one ticket. Summer skiing runs July to August on the Theodul glacier.
Renting ski equipment in Zermatt is the smart choice for most visitors. Luggage costs for ski gear can exceed the price of a week-long rental, and local shops offer ski jacket rental perfectly tuned for Zermatt's terrain — all levels level, 360 km of pistes at up to 3883m.
Zermatt is car-free: everything in the village is walkable or reached by electric taxis and horse-drawn carriages. Après centres on Hennu Stall and the Unique Hotel Post, with typically precise Swiss closing times — most bars shut by 1am.
Typical daily ski jacket rental in Zermatt costs €35–€70. Booking a full week package usually saves 15–25% compared to daily rates.
The Gornergrat rack railway is the best viewpoint for the Matterhorn — not a ski lift, but ski-pass holders ride at a discount. Go at sunrise when the first cog train leaves at 7:24am for an unobstructed view.
