Location & Arrival: Look forward to staying at La Ginabelle
Welcome to Zermatt!
At La Ginabelle, you spend your active wellness holidays at the foot of the Matterhorn in the southwest of Switzerland - in the German-speaking part of the canton Valais, right on the border with Italy.
In the quiet and centrally located Wellness & Holiday Hotel Resort La Ginabelle in Zermatt, everyday life is far away and nature is close by. Within only 2 minutes walking-distance, you can reach the cable cars and the valley run.
Zermatt offers you a wide variety of exiting activities. In summer, you can spend an active day exploring the hiking area Sunnegga - Blauherd - Rothorn. In winter, the Matterhorn Ski Paradise, one of the largest and certainly the best ski area in the world, offers 360 km of pists for you to enjoy. Some pists are even open all year round. The Matterhorn Glacier Paradise is the highest summer snow sports area in Europe.
Reaching Zermatt by Car
If you want to drive to our Resort La Ginabelle, you need to know that no cars are allowed in the village of Zermatt. However, the nearby village Täsch offers parking spaces and shuttle services up to Zermatt 24/7.
There are many parking houses in Täsch to choose from. We recommend our partner "Taxi Fredy" who provides visitors with a parking & shuttle service for a fair price. If you do not want to book one of the parking house's shuttle services, you can also take the shuttle train up to Zermatt which leaves every 15 minutes during high season. If you wish, we will be happy to help organize your arrival and facilitate your journey to Zermatt.
Once you arrive in Zermatt, we will happily pick you up from the train station with our electric shuttle bus between 8:00 am and 7:00 pm. Pick-up service may be booked in advance via mail or telephone.
