Why this trip
When the valley below shimmers in midsummer, the air in Cervinia at the southern foot of the Matterhorn is still fresh: the altitude of over 2000 metres makes the place a destination for families who want to escape the heat. The resort lies in Italy's Aosta Valley and is linked to Zermatt by a glacier connection. The Matterhorn Glacier Paradise is a mountain station at over 3800 metres, reached by cable car, and with children it should be visited only briefly because of the thin air. The Cervino Ski Paradise ski area offers slopes for every ability and a snow park where school-age children enjoy the snow in winter.
Small walks in the village lead along meadows and streams, without parents having to plan big hikes. Milan, Livigno, Madonna di Campiglio and the Cinque Terre are nearby, but Cervinia is enough for a few days of mountain air. From April to June and from September to October the paths and lifts open on varying schedules, so check beforehand. The journey over the Alps is short, around one to one and a half hours of flight time to Italy, and entry is visa-free.
Hats, gloves and sun cream belong in the luggage in summer too.
Getting there
On a journey with children every hour counts, so from Zurich or Basel-Mulhouse Swiss Vibes chooses short and calm connections where possible.
