Why this trip
Andermatt lies at 1400 metres in the Urseren valley, and if you travel there with children in summer, you notice at once: the air is clear, the mountains are high, and the railway station is in the middle of the village. From June to September the paths are open, the meadows green and the cable cars running. The Gurschenbahn leads to a viewpoint from which children can watch marmots and mountains, and from there short paths lead to mountain lakes. The Bergbahnen Disentis open up the Sedrun and Disentis region, where walks are laid out for families with a buggy or a baby carrier.
The Schneehüenerstock flyer is a cable car for older children who like courage, and suits families who enjoy a view. The Andermatt-Sedrun-Disentis ski area is considered snow-sure, which makes children happy in the snow park in winter too. Engelberg, Grindelwald, Lucerne and Laax are neighbours, but Andermatt works well as a base for a few quiet days. If you arrive by train, you use the Gotthard route without traffic jams.
In the family room of a hotel in the village, everything stays within walking distance. The weather can turn, so a rain jacket and hat belong in the luggage.
